"What?! You want Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's Self Luck True Inheritance?!"
Northern Plains, deep within Lang Ya Blessed Land.
Yuan Fang walked straight ahead, flying directly into the core of the Twelve Cloud Pavilions, finding the Lang Ya Earth Spirit who was buried in work refining Gu.
The Lang Ya Earth Spirit's greatest hobby in this life was Gu Refining.
And his original body, Old Ancestor Long Hair, was the universally recognized Refinement Path Supreme Grandmaster of the entire Gu World, with an extremely high seniority and unfathomable strength.
Precisely because of this terrifying Refinement Path attainment, even the two Venerables who shook the ages, Thieving Heaven and Giant Sun, had personally visited him in the past to request his assistance.
That famous Rank Eight immortal gu house in King Court Blessed Land—the eighty-eight true yang building—was ultimately completed thanks to the efforts of Old Ancestor Long Hair.
Lang Ya Blessed Land had existed for a full three hundred thousand years, and its foundation was terrifyingly deep.
Any random treasure taken from here would be enough for an ordinary Gu Master to reach the heavens in a single step and instantly achieve great success.
Among the countless treasures in the blessed land, the absolute top and most precious were none other than these few items:
The Rank Eight Steal Life Immortal Gu, the Rank Eight heavenly origin supreme treasure lotus, the Rank Eight immortal gu house Refinement Cauldron, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's Self Luck True Inheritance, Long Hair's Refinement Path True Meaning, and mountains of countless Longevity Gu.
Yuan Fang came to the door today with a very clear goal—
What he wanted was Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's Self Luck True Inheritance.
In exchange, he was willing to hand over the Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's all living beings luck true inheritance in his possession to the Lang Ya Earth Spirit.
Facing this condition, the Lang Ya Earth Spirit remained silent for a long time, repeatedly weighing the pros and cons, before finally nodding in agreement.
This Self Luck True Inheritance was no ordinary Legacy.
Its core was precisely Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's vital Immortal Gu from back then—Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu.
The function of this immortal gu was to frantically boost the Gu Immortal's own Luck.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was able to rise all the way and repeatedly turn danger into safety back then by relying on the Heaven-Defying Luck brought by this immortal gu.
Using the Self Luck True Inheritance to suppress the all living beings luck true inheritance was perfectly appropriate.
Within the Self Luck True Inheritance, the complete Gu recipe for the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu was clearly recorded.
The only pity was that the Lang Ya Earth Spirit only had the Gu recipe and not a ready-made Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu.
Holding the complete Gu recipe for the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu, the corners of Yuan Fang's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
Just then, the Lang Ya Earth Spirit's eyes darted around as he leaned in, speaking with a beaming smile:
"Yuan Fang, I have all the Gu Materials and Gu worms needed to refine the rank six Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu right here."
"Do you want to buy them? I happen to be short of a batch of immortal materials. If you can help me get them, I'll give you one complete set of Materials for refining the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu for free."
When Yuan Fang heard this, he was momentarily speechless.
He secretly complained in his heart:
When refining the Starve-Resistant Immortal Gu back then, he had deliberately acted to fool the Lang Ya Earth Spirit; now, it seemed the Lang Ya Earth Spirit really took him for a sucker, single-mindedly wanting to take advantage of him.
Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu—the name alone carried a strange scent.
And the Materials needed to refine it were even more "flavorful."
Looking at the Gu recipe filled with various "dog shit" related Materials, Yuan Fang felt both amused and helpless. He looked at the Lang Ya Earth Spirit and spoke calmly:
"I might not have the immortal materials you want, but as for this 'dog shit,' would I really be lacking it? Lang Ya Earth Spirit, you're truly a disgrace to your original body, Old Ancestor Long Hair. You're really regressing as you live longer."
As soon as these words came out, the Lang Ya Earth Spirit's face flushed red instantly.
He was just secretly laughing in his heart about how easy Yuan Fang was to fool, but then he thought—how could someone who destroyed King Court Blessed Land and smashed the eighty-eight true yang building be truly stupid?
"This Yuan Fang should be a bit smarter than Mao Da and Mao Er..."
"However, he's still far from my original body, and compared to me, he's still a bit short."
The Lang Ya Earth Spirit mused randomly in his heart.
But thinking of Yuan Fang's terrifying Wisdom Path methods when deducing Old Man Yan Shi and calculating immortal gu recipes earlier, he didn't seem like an idiot no matter how one looked at it.
Then why did the other party always seem to be "scammed" by him?
Thinking back and forth, the Lang Ya Earth Spirit's head began to ache, so he simply stopped thinking.
He reached a simple and crude conclusion:
Yuan Fang was lopsided.
Incredibly strong in some areas, and quite stupid in others.
Seeing his conflicted look, Yuan Fang lightly patted the Lang Ya Earth Spirit's shoulder, his tone carrying a hint of composure and playfulness that said, "You're still too green."
Immediately after, Yuan Fang's expression turned slightly serious as he spoke slowly:
"Lang Ya Earth Spirit, I deduced a few days ago that Lang Ya Blessed Land will be attacked before long."
"The people coming are extremely powerful, and what they are targeting is precisely your Rank Eight immortal gu house—Refinement Cauldron."
The Lang Ya Earth Spirit was first stunned, then his expression changed drastically, so startled he almost jumped up.
What he was truly afraid of was not the enemy, but—
Yuan Fang actually knew about his most deeply hidden Rank Eight immortal gu house, Refinement Cauldron!
"You, how do you know..."
Seeing his panicked look, Yuan Fang laughed loudly:
"Lang Ya Earth Spirit, I am a Wisdom Path Grandmaster. How could these little secrets of yours be hidden from me?"
"I also know your true identity, I know about your Steal Life Immortal Gu, I know about the Hairy People Gu Immortals in your blessed land, and I even know about the existence of the other 'Lang Ya Earth Spirit'..."
"I won't go into detail about these matters one by one."
The Lang Ya Earth Spirit's eyes widened, filled with utter horror, his jaw nearly dropping to the ground.
How could Yuan Fang know so many secrets?
How could a Rank Six Gu Immortal see through secrets that no one had discovered in Lang Ya Blessed Land for three hundred thousand years?
In an instant, he felt both fortunate and terrified.
Fortunate that Yuan Fang was a friend and not an enemy, and terrified that Yuan Fang's schemes were unfathomably deep.
"Yuan Fang! Brother Yuan Fang! Aren't you a Wisdom Path Grandmaster? How could you calculate so many things..."
"In three hundred thousand years, there has never been a Rank Six Gu Immortal who could see through the secrets of my Lang Ya Blessed Land!"
Yuan Fang took two slow steps and gave a cold laugh:
"Who told you that I am 'merely' an ordinary Wisdom Path Grandmaster?"
The Lang Ya Earth Spirit was completely stunned.
In his heart, Yuan Fang's image instantly transformed from "a bit simple-minded" to "unfathomably deep."
Those eyes that originally seemed ordinary now appeared to him like a ten-thousand-foot abyss, completely impossible to see through.
The Lang Ya Earth Spirit blurted out on the spot, "Brother Yuan Fang! You... you're actually a Wisdom Path Great Grandmaster! Impressive!"
Yuan Fang just smiled without saying a word.
Seeing this, the Lang Ya Earth Spirit became even more convinced of his judgment.
But how could he know that Yuan Fang was not a Wisdom Path Great Grandmaster at all, but "merely" an ordinary Wisdom Path Grandmaster.
After leaving Lang Ya Blessed Land, Yuan Fang went directly to Chang Fan Blessed Land.
Chang Fan Blessed Land, Falling Star Hound Kennel.
Nineteen desolate beast Falling Star Hounds; they were very cute, with massive bodies even larger than dinosaurs.
They wagged their big fluffy tails and stuck out their crimson tongues, frolicking on the grass, looking naive and adorable, without a hint of a desolate beast's ferocity.
Several Gu Masters were carefully holding special food, meticulously feeding these giant beasts.
It was currently the mating season for the desolate beast Falling Star Hounds. To make the male Falling Star Hounds stronger, show great Divine Might, fight many alone, and perform beyond their normal limits,
the Gu Masters had specifically added many nourishing medicinal herbs to the food.
Just then, in the sky, a giant bird dove down.
The giant bird's wings were crimson like a raging fire, the edges of its feathers shimmered with golden sunlight, its sharp claws were as hard as golden hooks, and its speed was startlingly fast—it was the desolate beast Phoenix Feather Gold Fire Eagle.
Yuan Fang and Eternal Ordinary sat side by side on the eagle's back, descending composedly. Yuan Fang's purpose for this trip was very simple:
To collect the dog shit of the desolate beast Falling Star Hounds.
Before this, he had already visited several desolate beast dog kennels, specifically collecting various "fresh" desolate beast dog excrement.
And the dog shit of the desolate beast Falling Star Hound was precisely one of the most critical main Materials for refining the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu.
The Gu Masters guarding the Falling Star Hound Kennel immediately knelt in respect upon seeing Yuan Fang and Eternal Ordinary.
Soon, they carried out dozens of boxes of dog shit that had been prepared long ago from the warehouse.
These things had already been properly sealed according to Yuan Fang's instructions.
With a wave of his hand, Yuan Fang instantly stored the dozens of boxes of dog shit into his immortal aperture.
After getting the items, Yuan Fang and Eternal Ordinary bid farewell, returned to Fox Immortal Blessed Land, and finally went back to his own Sword Path Blessed Land.
Upon returning to the blessed land, the scene before him was shocking.
Beside the massive Blood Lake, over a hundred boxes of dog shit were neatly stacked, featuring a wide variety of types, containing everything one could imagine.
Several people were already standing by the Blood Lake:
There was Feng Tianyu, as well as several old Hairy People transferred from the Human Path Blessed Land.
Feng Tianyu and these old Hairy People were all Refinement Path Quasi-Grandmasters, possessing seasoned Gu Refining techniques and rich experience.
Yuan Fang's Human Path Clone had even reached the level of a Refinement Path Grandmaster. After all, Yuan Fang's main body was a Refinement Path Grandmaster, and the Clone naturally inherited that strength.
However, for the craft of Gu Refining, having a high Realm alone was far from enough. Methods, techniques, experience, and proficiency were often more important than one's Realm.
Just like Fang Yuan in the original work, when he first became a Refinement Path Quasi-Supreme Grandmaster, his actual Gu Refining level still couldn't compare to the Lang Ya Earth Spirit, who had been obsessed with Gu Refining for countless years.
Among the crowd, a Rank Four Gu Master named Mao Qingfeng was trembling all over with excitement.
He was just an ordinary Rank Four Gu Master; the greatest dream of his life was to see an immortal gu with his own eyes, let alone participate in refining one.
And now, he actually had the chance to participate in refining a rank six immortal gu, and it was the vital Immortal Gu of Giant Sun Immortal Venerable from back then!
In Mao Qingfeng's heart, even if he were to die immediately, as long as he could personally participate in refining this immortal gu, he would die without regrets.
With a command from Yuan Fang, the Gu Refining officially began.
Lumps of desolate beast dog shit were thrown into the Blood Lake one by one, and a "wonderful" scent permeated the air.
Yuan Fang activated his immortal essence with full force; the calm Blood Lake instantly boiled and churned as a thick Blood Qi soared into the sky.
He was using the Blood Refining Method, which was his most familiar and convenient way of refining Gu.
There are thousands upon thousands of Gu Refining methods in the Gu World—ice refinement, fire refinement, water refinement, wood refinement, cloud refinement... each has its own strengths.
fire refinement is suitable for Gu Masters with fierce and vigorous personalities.
cloud refinement is suitable for Gu Masters who are open-minded and unrestrained.
Yuan Fang didn't bother to choose and directly used his most proficient Blood Refining Method to refine this Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu.
But accidents happened one after another.
The first Gu Refining attempt—failed.
The entire Blood Lake was ruined, and dozens of boxes of dog shit turned directly into a pool of black water. Yuan Fang was well-prepared; he had enough Materials to fail several times.
The second time—failed.
The third time—still failed.
Three consecutive failures; even with Yuan Fang's steady state of mind, his composure almost exploded. Each of these failures directly wasted Materials worth over a hundred immortal essence stones.
If he kept failing like this, no amount of dog shit would be enough to squander.
Yuan Fang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the irritability in his heart. The immortal materials for the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu were easy to find, but the success rate of the refinement was maddeningly low.
Moreover, Yuan Fang was clearly not skilled in the Blood Refining Method, and it was obviously unsuitable for refining this Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu.
This time, he made a new decision:
Switch to the Hairy People Nature Style Gu Refining method.
The Hairy People Nature Style was the oldest and most authentic Gu Refining method of the Hairy People race; it was the style that Lang Ya Earth Spirit was best at.
Human Race Gu Refining emphasizes quietness, stability, and safety; only by being undisturbed in a secret room can one perform steadily.
But the Hairy People Nature Style was exactly the opposite.
A Gu Master practicing this method must stand between heaven and earth, listening to the sounds of wind, rain, thunder, birds, and beasts, feeling the flow of rivers, the transition of the sun and moon, and the sound of wind in ancient forests...
The person refining the Gu seems to completely merge themselves into the nature of heaven and earth, becoming one with nature.
Refining Gu in this state would result in a success rate far exceeding ordinary Human Race Gu Refining methods. However, this method also had a fatal flaw:
It would inevitably face heaven's wrath, attracting calamities and tribulations.
The higher the Rank of the immortal gu being refined, the stronger the calamity would be.
Yuan Fang took a deep breath, completely letting go of his body and mind as he operated the Hairy People Nature Style.
green grape immortal essence flooded into the Blood Lake frantically, and the originally chaotic Materials actually began to stabilize bit by bit.
With the support of the Hairy People Nature Style, this Gu Refining attempt was exceptionally smooth.
Buzz—!
A soft sound rang out.
rank six immortal gu—Dog Shit Luck, was officially refined!
As soon as the immortal gu emerged, the heaven and earth changed color.
The sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, thunder rolled, and a torrential rain crashed down. This was a calamity descended by Heaven's Will.
The heavy rain washed away the dog shit residue and blood water on the ground, and a complex scent filled the air.
The wind blew through Yuan Fang's black hair and also through the fine fur on the Hairy People. All the Hairy People were trembling with excitement, tears streaming from their eyes.
They had really refined an immortal gu!
So many years of hard work had not been in vain!
Even if they were to die right now, they would be willing!
Yuan Fang naturally blocked this Immortal Gu tribulation easily on his own.
With his current strength, combined with the Self Luck from the newly refined Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu, this tiny calamity couldn't harm him.
Soon, that terrifying calamity cloud, which had looked like it would crush the city, completely dissipated as if it had never existed.
Yuan Fang gently held the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu in his hand, becoming more satisfied the more he looked at it. This immortal gu was small and exquisite, with spiritual light flowing through it, not looking vulgar at all like its name suggested.
Feng Tianyu and the Hairy People all gathered around, their eyes filled with awe and worship:
"It really is an immortal gu!"
"immortal gu!!! We really refined an immortal gu!"
"Is this the Aura of an immortal gu? It really is an immortal gu! Beautiful! Simply beautiful!!" Feng Tianyu was nearly delirious, tears flowing down like a waterfall.
In their lifetime, they were actually able to participate in refining an immortal gu; this was an immense stroke of Luck!
Just then, Mao Qingfeng suddenly fell to his knees before Yuan Fang with a thud, kowtowing three times with a loud bang, his forehead splitting open and blood flowing freely.
He raised his face, which was covered in tears of excitement and blood of exhilaration, his voice hoarse but firm:
"Immortal! I beg you to take me as your Disciple! Pass on the Gu Refining techniques you used just now to me! If you don't agree, I will kill myself right here today!"
Mao Qingfeng was simply too desperate to learn Yuan Fang's Gu Refining methods, but other than using suicide as a threat, he couldn't think of any way to make Yuan Fang take him as a Disciple.
Yuan Fang looked at his persistent appearance, smiled slightly, and reached out to gently help him up.
Although Yuan Fang's Clones were all Refinement Path Grandmasters, not one of them was truly obsessed with Gu Refining, and none were particularly skilled at it.
In terms of love and focus for the Refinement Path, many of Yuan Fang's Clones might not actually be able to compare to Mao Qingfeng.
Yuan Fang's smile was gentle and calm, like a warm current that instantly smoothed over Mao Qingfeng's tension and excitement.
"Mao Qingfeng, from today on, you are my second Disciple."
(The first Disciple is Ma Hong Yun)
Mao Qingfeng was so excited he wanted to kowtow again, but he was gently stopped by Yuan Fang. With a casual wave of Yuan Fang's hand, a gentle white light landed on Mao Qingfeng.
The wound on his head healed instantly, and even the old and hidden injuries left behind from years of Gu Refining were completely restored at this moment.
His whole body felt so light it was as if he were about to fly.
After refining the Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu, Yuan Fang's Luck directly skyrocketed. It far exceeded what it was before, becoming even more vigorous than those legendary people with great Luck.
With a thought, he immediately activated the Luck Inspection Immortal Gu, impatiently observing the changes in his own Luck.
In the next moment, an astonishing sight appeared.
A massive phantom of Yuan Fang stood between heaven and earth, towering into the clouds, touching the Nine Heavens above and pressing down on the ten directions below.
Behind the phantom, a blue-green Great Dao halo slowly rotated; it was draped in rainbow ribbons and surrounded by Immortal Qi, looking like an ancient True God descending to the world.
The massive Yuan Fang phantom was semi-transparent, its entire body glowing with a verdant divine light. He was surrounded by seventy-two massive Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords, guarding him like a sword formation, with a majestic Aura that suppressed all directions.
Sword Qi coiled around like dragons, protecting the true body with a majestic Aura that suppressed all directions. Outside the sword formation halo, a very faint strand of black Death Qi was entwined, appearing indistinctly.
That represented future crises and hidden dangers, reminding Yuan Fang that no matter how strong his Luck was, he could not be careless.
This image of Luck was grand and majestic, like the legendary Law-Heaven Phenomenon-Earth.
Looking at this Luck phenomenon that belonged to him, Yuan Fang's heart stirred slightly, and he spoke slowly, naming it:
"From now on, you shall be called—Law-Heaven Phenomenon-Earth Luck.
