Why was Hei Lou Lan so ecstatic? Only because this Killer Move of Fang Yuan's might truly fight out a slim chance of survival for her.
Just moments ago, she had betrayed Fang Yuan.
But she understood Fang Yuan perfectly, just as Fang Yuan could understand her.
Hei Lou Lan stepped out of the crowd and tugged with her right hand. The next moment, a set of men's clothing was swept into the Great Unity Wind, and a valiant, peerless beauty with sharp features stood there gracefully.
Hei Lou Lan revealed her true appearance!
"Old Monster Fang! Even though you are formidable, you dare to offend the Giant Suns ancestor and destroy my ancestors' foundation. Today, I cannot let you stay!"
A black shadow as vigorous as a lone swan suddenly attacked. Fang Yuan dodged to the side, his figure flickering like a ghost as he brushed past Hei Lou Lan.
"Immortal Path Killer Move — Only I Am Supreme!"
The next moment, a black steel nail shot out. Hei Lou Lan's figure flashed, and a surge of aura erupted from her hand; she was precisely activating the Strength Qi immortal gu.
The black shadow was like lightning, charging down. Fang Yuan immediately activated the wander far gu, his figure swaying as he dodged the palm and flashed behind Hei Lou Lan.
"Mortal Path Killer Move — Divine Palm!"
Before his voice faded, Fang Yuan's palm struck Hei Lou Lan's back. The black armor instantly shattered, revealing the fair and delicate skin underneath.
Hei Lou Lan was now like a cannonball, being slapped toward Hei Cheng.
"Little Lan, I'll catch you."
Hei Cheng was ecstatic. He was just worrying about not being able to catch Hei Lou Lan, and he didn't expect this fellow Fang Yuan, who looked decent enough, to be so obedient. If they weren't enemies, he would really want to thank Fang Yuan, this great benefactor and philanthropist.
But Hei Cheng forgot a most crucial detail, one so important it couldn't be more so—Hei Lou Lan had already achieved Immortal Ascension, and she possessed the top-tier blessed land of the Great Strength True Martial Body!
This time, it was truly like an iron plate hitting real iron.
"Father, this is my gift to you..."
"Ah? Wh... what?"
"Immortal Path Killer Move — Great Filial Piety!"
A domineering and unparalleled strike of "kind father and filial child" (dead father and laughing child)! Only a crisp "clap" was heard, like the ringing of jade pendants or immortal music, beautiful and magnificent. This was a rank six level "Inch of Grass Heart".
(Who can say that the heart of an inch-long grass can repay the radiance of three months of spring?)
Hei Cheng took Hei Lou Lan's slap squarely.
This palm strike startled the heavens and made the spirits weep. The wind from the palm swept the ground, the sound traveled across the wilderness, and the palm Qi was overbearing. In the midst of this earth-shaking event, it was as if a schoolteacher had slapped the emperor, rites and music collapsed, and demons danced wildly; it was also like the Heavenly Dao collapsing, a Prince Charming kissing a Frog Prince awake, or a hair dryer blowing hard on Peppa Pig.
And just like that, this "unprecedented and unrepeatable" peerless Divine Palm "lightly" landed on Hei Cheng's face.
(Gu Yue First Generation cast an approving look toward Hei Lou Lan from the heavens)
With one slap, Hei Cheng was dizzy, as if he saw the Door of Life and Death beckoning to him. The next moment, there was another "clap" slap.
He didn't see the Door of Life and Death, but he seemed to see his great-grandmother calling him for dinner.
Hei Cheng was very happy. His great-grandmother had been dead for hundreds of years. Just as he was about to go eat, another slap came flying!
Oh! Great-grandma disappeared, and he saw Snow White and the Frog Prince kissing, the M78 Nebula being swept by a Star Destroyer, the US military smiling as they delivered oil, and Empress Dowager Cixi declaring war on Hogwarts...
He fainted from fright. Fortunately, Dark Prison and the Hei Family Gu Immortals fought desperately to save him, so Hei Cheng didn't spiral up to heaven on the spot. After Hei Cheng was woken up, several Hei Family Gu Immortals took action and urgently left the King Court Blessed Land.
Just then, Qin Bai Sheng suddenly said:
"Immortal friend Fang Yuan, may I ask if this Killer Move is a Human Path Killer Move?"
"It is indeed a Human Path Killer Move."
"It... it really is a Human Path Killer Move..." Qin Bai Sheng gazed at Fang Yuan and asked, "Immortal friend Fang Yuan, what is your relationship with that friend of yours named Yuan Fang?"
Fang Yuan smiled but did not answer. Qin Bai Sheng understood his meaning; he realized they were suddenly close relatives or friends. Thus, Qin Bai Sheng said:
"Immortal friend Fang Yuan, you should know how rare Human Path Gu Immortals are, right? A person like you would be welcomed anywhere. How about this, give me the eighty-eight true yang building, and I can shake hands and make peace with you."
"That immortal friend of yours named Yuan Fang once impersonated a Gu Immortal of my sect. If you agree to hand over the eighty-eight true yang building, I will not only invite you to become members of our sect but also give you a generous Legacy."
Fang Yuan smiled. He naturally knew that Qin Bai Sheng wanted to recruit him. As for the eighty-eight true yang building, it had long since existed in name only, with most of its core immortal gu consumed, making it even inferior to the damaged near water pavilion.
Seeing this situation, Hei Lou Lan sensed something was wrong. She had just successfully refined the Fixed Immortal Travel and was about to escape.
"Immortal Path Killer Move — Fix Space!"
The next moment, Hei Lou Lan, who was about to teleport away, was forcibly interrupted. It turned out that the Shadow Sect had already prepared some methods against Fixed Immortal Travel.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan said, "Hei Lou Lan, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave today. Giant Suns Will is currently being besieged by my Myriad Self army. Hand over the Fixed Immortal Travel, and I might be able to help you kill Hei Cheng in the future."
"Kill Hei Cheng? Hmph! For such an important matter, why would I need to do it myself? Don't give me those empty Promises. I want immortal gu, I want strength path immortal gu. I won't covet your All-Out Effort Immortal Gu; I just want this Flying Bear Strength immortal gu in my immortal aperture."
Fang Yuan thought about it and agreed. He then took back the Fixed Immortal Travel Gu and, with the help of Qin Bai Sheng's Information Path immortal gu, set an alliance agreement.
Afterward, Fang Yuan looked at Qin Bai Sheng again and said:
"The eighty-eight true yang building is a Rank Eight immortal gu house. Although it is now damaged, the framework is still there, and there is still a chance to restore it in the future. I can give the eighty-eight true yang building to you, but I must see what Legacy you will give me."
"As for joining your noble sect, I must respectfully decline. However, I can form an alliance with your sect, just like the relationship between your sect and Bai Ning Bing."
Qin Bai Sheng was shocked upon hearing this. Fang Yuan actually knew that Bai Ning Bing was in the Shadow Sect. He asked urgently, "How do you know about Bai Ning Bing?"
"I also cultivate Wisdom Path." Fang Yuan said it as if it were true.
Qin Bai Sheng was surprised at first, but thinking that Fang Yuan also had a Human Path Killer Move, he didn't find it strange anymore. Thus, Qin Bai Sheng said:
"Our sect has legacies for all paths, even Human Path or the future Dream Path. I have a Human Path Rank Seven Legacy here that you might be interested in."
Qin Bai Sheng threw out an east window gu, which recorded this Legacy. There were two Rank Seven immortal gu in this Legacy, one called Human Heart immortal gu and one called Human Soul immortal gu, as well as a rank six immortal gu called Soul Refining immortal gu.
"How about it... although there is only one Human Path immortal gu among these, the three immortal gu combined can also form a powerful Immortal Path Killer Move."
Qin Bai Sheng continued slowly, "If I'm not mistaken, after that incident, you all already have means to deal with the dimming starlight. Given my current situation, it would be difficult to kill you."
This was actually true. Just now, Qin Bai Sheng's move failed to activate, and the backlash from the Killer Move caused serious injuries, dropping his combat power to the level of an ordinary Rank Seven. Even if they attacked together, they really couldn't kill Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan said coldly, "I am not acquainted with your noble sect, and your noble sect is wealthy and powerful."
"And I am just a small fry. A gentleman does not stand under a crumbling wall. Our alliance is limited to not fighting to the death and fair trading. I will not take action for your noble sect unless the benefits are large enough."
Hearing this, Qin Bai Sheng felt unwilling: "Immortal friend Fang Yuan, won't you really consider it?"
Fang Yuan's Attitude remained firm because he believed in Yuan Fang and believed that Yuan Fang could not and dared not backstab him. Yuan Fang said that the Shadow Sect would be finished in the near future and that he must not join.
"Brother Fang Yuan, let's not talk about that for now... how about this Human Path Legacy? Are you willing to trade? Don't look down on it just because it's a Rank Seven Legacy; that is a Human Path Legacy after all."
Fang Yuan threw out a bookworm, which recorded a pile of Gu materials, indicating to Qin Bai Sheng that he also wanted these things, and specifically explained where that Drinking Blade Wine came from. These Gu materials were all used to refine the Rank Seven Myriad Self immortal gu. In the original work, there was a detailed record of the refining process for the Myriad Self immortal gu:
"Add these, and the eighty-eight true yang building is yours."
Qin Bai Sheng looked at the list and agreed. He then took out an Information Path immortal gu named Promise. After both parties signed the alliance agreement, the transaction was completed. Fang Yuan handed over the eighty-eight true yang building, and the Shadow Sect handed over the Human Path Legacy.
Both sides got what they needed and even exchanged contact information to facilitate future trades once the Shadow Sect obtained more Gu materials.
Just then, the golden Giant Suns Will broke through the siege. Seeing the eighty-eight true yang building being traded away, he was so angry he began to curse loudly.
"Noisy old thing! Immortal Path Killer Move — Great Filial Piety!" Hei Lou Lan raised her hand and gave him a slap. Giant Suns Will was already extremely weakened, and with one slap, it was completely obliterated.
(Gu Yue First Generation and Hei Cheng gave Hei Lou Lan a thumbs up)
At this time, Qin Bai Sheng asked again, "Fang Yuan, do you sell that Rank Seven immortal gu house? It's already damaged and can't exert much combat power. Give it to me, and I can exchange it for a Legacy."
Fang Yuan shook his head and said, "This immortal gu house belongs to immortal friend Yuan Fang. He said he has a great use for it."
After hearing this, Qin Bai Sheng said no more and left with the damaged eighty-eight true yang building and the people from the Shadow Sect. Hei Lou Lan then entered Fang Yuan's immortal aperture and happened to see Yuan Fang:
"Yo, isn't this Fairy Lou Lan? We meet again."
Hei Lou Lan smiled and crossed her arms, saying, "According to the alliance agreement, if you hit me, Fang Yuan will suffer an Information Path backlash. You probably don't want Fang Yuan to self-destruct on the spot, do you?"
Yuan Fang really wanted to give Hei Lou Lan two big slaps right now, but he held back and even felt a hint of relief. This battle in the King Court Blessed Land was truly a narrow escape. One could only say that the wander far gu was too Heaven-Defying.
At this moment, the Great Unity Wind had almost assimilated the entire King Court Blessed Land, leaving only a few hundred meters of space.
Bathed in the shimmering white light falling from the wisdom gu, Fang Yuan recalled the dangers and twists along the way, still feeling a lingering fear in his heart.
The trip to the King Court Blessed Land could be described as having a rich harvest. Now, in the hands of Fang Yuan, Yuan Fang, Fang Zheng, Qing Shu, and others, the number of immortal gu was quite considerable.
Rank Nine immortal gu Wisdom, Rank Eight immortal gu Attitude, Rank Seven immortal gu Human Heart, Sword Qi, Human Soul, Calamity Beckoning immortal gu... As for rank six immortal gu, there were even more varieties:
All-Out Effort Immortal Gu, Soul Purification Immortal Gu, Soul Refining immortal gu, Self immortal gu, blood god offspring immortal gu, womans heart immortal gu, green vine immortal gu, Transformation immortal gu, Fixed Immortal Travel immortal gu, wander far immortal gu, be pleased with mountains and waters immortal gu, spring autumn cicada immortal gu, slave immortal gu, Luck Inspection immortal gu, continuous luck immortal gu, Meteoric Rise immortal gu, the land remains as before immortal gu, Man as Before immortal gu, and Flying Bear Phantom immortal gu.
(Not including the Flying Bear Strength immortal gu, Strength Qi immortal gu, and Self Strength immortal gu held by Hei Lou Lan)
Counting them up, there were nineteen rank six immortal gu, four Rank Seven immortal gu, one Rank Eight immortal gu, and one Rank Nine immortal gu, totaling twenty-five immortal gu.
However, at present, the Gu Immortals owned by the Gu Yue Clan were only Fang Yuan, Yuan Fang, Fang Zheng, Qing Shu, Great White Cloud Life, and Lin Hong—six people in total. On average, each person supporting four or five immortal gu was already the limit; any more would be impossible to maintain.
But those were matters for later. At this moment, Yuan Fang was standing with his hands behind his back in Fang Yuan's dead aperture, looking at the surging Great Unity Wind through an investigative Gu worm, and loudly chanting:
Three hundred thousand years passed in laughter and talk, eternal hegemonies turn to naught in a blink.
Myriad Self condenses the heart to open a path of life, with solitary courage, I break through the Grandmist.
Even if there is no eternal life and one returns to the yellow earth, one's original intention points the way.
Heaven does not cut off one's path, and the journey is free; wherever this body goes, it is a smooth passage.
"Hahaha, what great ambition!" Fang Yuan laughed loudly. The next moment, Fixed Immortal Travel was activated, and Fang Yuan disappeared.
King Court Blessed Land, destroyed!!!
