Fang Yuan knew he couldn't dodge, so he abruptly raised his eight Immortal Zombie giant hands, forcefully blocking the powerful punch.
The punch's wind was like a knife, causing his Immortal Zombie skin to tremble slightly. The next moment, he, along with Fang Zheng behind him, was sent flying.
All eight of Fang Yuan's Immortal Zombie giant hands were fractured, and twisted bone fragments pierced through his flesh. However, due to his Immortal Zombie body having almost no pain, he only felt a slight sense of sluggishness.
"Quickly, enter my dead aperture!"
The three immediately burrowed in. Before entering, Fang Zheng also released a large group of Four-Winged Heavenly Horses, Lava Pythons, and Stone Man Slaves to act as shields.
The shrieks of the Four-Winged Heavenly Horses, the fire pillars spewed by the Lava Pythons, and the heavy footsteps of the Stone Man Slaves intertwined, temporarily blocking the pursuers' vision.
Perhaps it was fate playing tricks, but Fang Zheng's blood path clones were not brought along, and none of their immortal apertures raised desolate beasts.
This led to such a pathetic situation, without even a moment to catch their breath.
"So many resources..."
The Bai Clan Leader's eyes lit up, with greedy light flickering within them.
She had just become an Immortal, penniless and starting from scratch. Faced with so many resources—those Gu materials containing dao marks, and even the immortal materials Fang Zheng had left behind—her heart surged with excitement.
She swiftly collected all these resources into her own immortal aperture, which trembled slightly from this sudden abundance.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan seized the opportunity to flap the bat wings on his back and escape.
These bat wings were not from a Gu worm, but rather Solidified Bat Wings he had purchased, which could be folded and stored when attached to his back.
With Fang Yuan's Transformation Path attainment, he could attach four pairs of wings to his back. And on Fang Yuan's back, two pairs of Solidified Bat Wings were already attached.
The airflow generated by the two pairs of Solidified Bat Wings during flight cut through the air like sharp blades, with a speed comparable to movement driven by a single immortal gu.
He sneered inwardly, the Bai Clan Leader had just become an Immortal and her Foundation was unstable; this was an excellent opportunity for him to escape.
"Ugly fellow! Leave Fang Yuan, and I might spare your life!"
The Bai Clan Leader shouted loudly, her voice full of venom, and immediately chased after Fang Yuan.
But how could Fang Yuan be so easily killed?
He had five hundred years of experience and was a flying Grandmaster. Each flap of his wings precisely avoided the opponent's Killer Move, making it difficult for the Bai Clan Leader to inflict effective damage on him.
While flying at extreme speed, Fang Yuan waited for rescue, and at the same time, occasionally spoke to interfere with the Bai Clan Leader, trying to disturb her mind:
"Alas, Bai Clan Leader, when will this cycle of vengeance end?"
"You try having your entire family die!"
"It's just your entire family, what's important is that you're still alive, aren't you?"
"I've worked so hard for so long, living only to destroy the Gu Yue Clan!"
"Oh? Then you should thank Fang Yuan, he allowed you to live for so long without committing suicide."
The Bai Clan Leader had never seen such a shameless person. Her face flushed crimson with anger, and she cursed Fang Yuan with a torrent of foul language.
Fang Yuan, however, didn't care at all, and even teased her back. Every one of Fang Yuan's responses precisely hit her sore spots, truly 'killing the heart'.
This brought the Bai Clan Leader's sanity to the brink of collapse:
"I'll f*** your dad!"
"Oh? Someone's volunteering themselves."
On the other side, Gu Yue Qing Shu, Red Snake, and Desolate Dust, the three Gu Immortals, activated Fixed Immortal Travel. Amidst spatial distortions, a flash of green light appeared, and the three Immortals teleported to Fang Yuan's original hiding place.
The three immediately activated their investigative Killer Moves. A pale green spiritual light swept across the surroundings, quickly locking onto the target:
"In this direction."
Qing Shu, with Red Snake and Desolate Dust, transformed into three streaks of light and rapidly flew towards Fang Yuan's location.
Meanwhile, the Bai Clan Leader also sensed the aura of the three. A sinister glint flashed in her eyes, and she raised her hand to set up several Mortal Path Killer Moves, ambushing them in place, waiting for the three to fall into her trap.
She calculated that if she could just stall these three, she could first deal with Fang Yuan, this major hidden danger.
But how could Qing Shu and the others be so easily stopped?
Qing Shu raised his hand and unleashed an Immortal Path Killer Move. Giant pale green wooden vines surged out like a tide, instantly disintegrating the hidden Mortal Path Killer Moves.
Seeing this, the Bai Clan Leader was secretly startled, and the green grape immortal essence at her fingertips trembled slightly:
"So strong! This is an Immortal Path Killer Move!"
Just then, Great White Cloud Life and the two others flew out from Fang Yuan's dead aperture.
Utilizing the time acceleration characteristic of the immortal aperture, they raced against time inside, quickly refining heaven connecting gu and retrieving a large number of Gu worms from Little Fox Immortal.
"Junior Brother, your immortal gu and Gu worms!"
Great White Cloud Life threw out countless Gu worms. Fang Yuan reached out to guide them, and those Gu worms integrated into his body like birds returning to their nest, instantly restoring his full combat strength.
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and his voice was low and powerful:
"Now... it's time to counterattack!"
Fang Yuan, Fang Zheng, Lin Xiang, and Great White Cloud Life immediately turned back to attack.
The Bai Clan Leader was fully focused on defending against Qing Shu and the other two. Caught off guard, she was struck by a Mortal Path Killer Move from Great White Cloud Life.
The Bai Clan Leader's chest felt as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer, and she immediately vomited blood incessantly, her immortal aperture violently fluctuating as a result.
"What... what's going on? Weren't they escaping just now? Why are they attacking again? Did they deliberately set a trap to kill me?"
The Bai Clan Leader's eyes were filled with disbelief, blood constantly dripped from the corner of her mouth, and the fear in her heart spread wildly like vines.
The next moment, the Bai Clan Leader felt a powerful aura from the Gu Yue Clan Gu Immortals—it was the aura of immortal gu!
She didn't even have a single immortal gu, and now suddenly feeling the pressure of so many immortal gu, she was completely stunned, her legs went soft, almost collapsing to the ground.
The aura of those immortal gu pressed down like a great mountain, making it difficult for her to even breathe.
"Immortal Path Killer Move—Myriad Self!"
Ten thousand Fang Yuan illusions flew out from the dead aperture, surging like a tide towards the Bai Clan Leader.
Each illusion carried Fang Yuan's aura, with fist winds and palm shadows intertwining into a vast, overwhelming net.
Fang Yuan naturally wouldn't use the Myriad Self Giant Hand Seal against her; that move contained a Rank Seven immortal gu, and activating it once would consume dozens of green grape immortal essence, which was too extravagant.
In contrast, the Myriad Self Killer Move only required one green grape immortal essence per activation, making it highly cost-effective and perfect for wearing down the opponent.
Facing the tide-like Myriad Self army, the Bai Clan Leader responded calmly, continuously unleashing Mortal Path Killer Moves.
The Bai Clan Leader moved through the illusions, in and out, yet the ten thousand Fang Yuan illusions couldn't harm her in the slightest.
Her combat talent was displayed to its fullest at this moment; every dodge was precise, and every counterattack carried a desperate resolve.
Gu Yue Qing Shu saw this, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes. He then raised his hand and unleashed a newly created Wood Path Killer Move, a pale green light condensing at his fingertips:
"Immortal Path Killer Move—Green Pine!"
A flash of green light streaked by, as fast as a meteor, then like a comet striking the moon, the arrogant Bai Clan Leader's head was instantly pierced through by a pine needle-like green light!
The green light shattered her skull, scattering her white brain matter, but blood did not splash as expected. Only a small-caliber blood hole was left on her head, and the surrounding air seemed to have solidified.
The Bai Clan Leader died. Like a puppet whose strings were cut, she collapsed powerlessly, her eyes forever fixed with resentment and unwillingness.
Although she was fleeting like a meteor in the book, her years of persistence ultimately earned her one chance, a chance for revenge.
Even if she ultimately perished, she left her own mark in this cruel world in her own way.
This world truly has countless heroes; in the long river of history, heroes are as numerous as carps crossing a river, and Fang Yuan himself is no exception.
In the legend of human ancestor, Little People walked out of the Ordinary Abyss and produced Persistence Gu; while the tall Forest Sea Reincarnation was forever trapped in the Ordinary Abyss.
Never underestimate the persistence of small individuals; those seemingly insignificant obsessions can often erupt with earth-shattering power.
Alas, how could the Bai Clan Leader's persistence compare to Fang Yuan's five hundred years of wandering?
Fang Yuan slowly walked forward, extracted the Bai Clan Leader's soul, and took her corpse with him.
Even after her soul was extracted, the Bai Clan Leader continued to curse Fang Yuan. Yet, Fang Yuan remained unfazed, as if a breeze had brushed his cheek, his eyes still cold and indifferent.
His gaze was icy, without a trace of pity. In this cruel Gu World, pity would only become a weakness. A cold wind blew, freezing all hot blood.
Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully a young man for being poor! Unfortunately, the Bai Clan Leader was not a young man, nor even a young woman, at most she was an auntie.
(Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully an auntie for being poor)
The Bai Clan Leader's corpse was stuffed into Fang Yuan's immortal aperture. This corpse could, through the Madman Immortal Gu, add hundreds of Food Path dao marks to Yuan Fang's Clone, the beastman Gu Immortal Eastern Orc.
Moreover, there was a blessed land in the corpse's lower abdomen. If the corpse were eaten, the dao marks within the blessed land would greatly decrease.
However, a Transformation Path blessed land was not as valuable compared to several hundred Food Path dao marks.
Furthermore, her soul could be placed into the Rank Seven immortal gu house prototype — human sovereign banner.
The human sovereign banner could nurture rank six combat strength from Gu Immortal souls, and these souls would become sharp weapons in his hands.
The human sovereign banner can nurture rank six combat strength from Gu Immortal souls.
Unlike blood god child Clones and Servitude Path Killer Moves, these souls do not act under the drive of will. Therefore, enslavement methods from Killer Moves like Myriad Star Fireflies and Only I Am Supreme are useless against them.
It is just unknown whether these Gu Immortal souls would be affected by Feng Jiu Ge's "Submissive Song."
Feng Jiu Ge's strength was truly terrifying:
Jade Song could turn everything into jade, even heaven and earth would change color for it; Great Wind Song could create Great Unity Wind, capable of assimilating everything; Treasure Acquisition Song could instantly refine wild immortal gu; Song of a Gentleman could produce Sound Path clones...
Feng Jiu Ge's life ambition was to create nine songs, to sing of all living beings, heaven and earth, and himself.
As one of the nine songs, "Submissive Song" could make desolate beasts defect, so the souls in the human sovereign banner would likely be affected by it.
It is estimated that the strongest counter to Feng Jiu Ge would be Lang Ya Earth Spirit's "Silence of All Sounds" Killer Move.
That Killer Move could make all sounds disappear, perfectly countering Sound Path Gu Immortals. Even Feng Jiu Ge's singing would be instantly cut off.
(Feng Jiu Ge: Farewell, xxxx; Farewell, xxxx...)
(Lang Ya Earth Spirit: I'll farewell your mother! Silence of All Sounds!)
(Feng Jiu Ge's farewell song couldn't be sung)
However, Fang Yuan did not yet need to face such a formidable opponent as Feng Jiu Ge.
How could he, a mere rank six eight-armed Immortal Zombie, require the great Feng Jiu Ge to personally take action?
Throughout the entire book, the only person who could fight Feng Jiu Ge of the same rank at Rank Seven cultivation was Liu Guan Yi, who was described as 'body like willow catkins drifting with the wind, whether in clouds or mud, his will is one'.
His Reverse Flow Protection Seal Killer Move had a defense like an impregnable fortress, capable of blocking and reversing all of Feng Jiu Ge's attacks, making it the strongest shield at Rank Seven;
And Feng Jiu Ge, on the other hand, was the strongest spear at Rank Seven. The cooperation of spear and shield was destined to become a legend passed down through the ages.
At this moment, a cold wind swept through Luo Po Valley, as Yuan Fang walked inside the eighty-eight true yang building.
This building was extremely vast, every brick and tile containing the mysteries of Luck Path. Yuan Fang lingered inside for several days, and his understanding and comprehension of Luck Path deepened.
He could clearly feel that every flash of spiritual light within the building was narrating the trajectory of fate and Luck.
In addition, the building also housed hundreds of special Gu, which emitted a golden Giant Sun's Will, dazzling like a scorching sun.
During the King Court Blessed Land battle, Giant Sun's Will was not completely destroyed after being 'filially ridiculed' because a portion of Giant Sun's Will remained within the eighty-eight true yang building.
Yuan Fang naturally knew about eternal heaven's plans during the Fate War, so he asked Giant Sun's Will many questions related to Luck Path.
Giant Sun's Will naturally also understood the deeper layout of the Fate War. His main body's construction of the eighty-eight true yang building and leaving behind wisdom gu were originally preparations for refining Fate Gu.
In response to Yuan Fang's questions, he only answered some irrelevant content, but for Yuan Fang, this common knowledge of Luck Path was already sufficient.
After many days of contemplation, Yuan Fang still felt it was not enough, so he placed the eighty-eight true yang building into Sword Path Blessed Land.
Due to the different flow of time in the immortal aperture, Yuan Fang meditated for several years, even passing through an Earth Tribulation midway, and finally deduced a Killer Move prototype.
Yuan Fang was already impatient to use this Killer Move, so he left Luo Po Valley.
He didn't want to expose his trump card too early, and didn't even plan to use this move in Fox Immortal Blessed Land, instead directly entering Xiaoqiang Blessed Land in Southern Border.
He knew that only in a safe, uninhabited, and secret place could this Killer Move remain undiscovered.
As soon as he stepped into Xiaoqiang Blessed Land, the Earth Spirit Flying Xiaoqiang immediately flew over, excitedly waving its two antennae. The two cockroach legs closest to its head also shook excitedly, appearing particularly enthusiastic:
"Master, Master, you're finally back! I missed you so much!"
Yuan Fang smiled slightly. Although this Flying Xiaoqiang was not as cute as Fang Yuan's Little Fox Immortal and Star Constellation Child, it was incredibly loyal.
Yuan Fang flew directly to an open sea surface. The sky of Xiaoqiang Blessed Land was a deep black.
Due to the dense Star Path dao marks, the sky was filled with twinkling starlight, creating a unique and beautiful scene.
"Let's try the new Killer Move here."
"Ma... Master, you're going to..."
Just as Flying Xiaoqiang was about to say something, Yuan Fang had already activated the Killer Move prototype. The green grape immortal essence in his body surged like a river, and spiritual light gathered around him:
"Immortal Path Killer Move—Law-Heaven Phenomenon-Earth!"
The next moment, Yuan Fang's body became incredibly huge, every inch of his skin expanding, seemingly about to burst through the dome of Xiaoqiang Blessed Land.
Flying Xiaoqiang cried out anxiously, its voice filled with panic. Yuan Fang immediately sensed something was wrong and forcibly interrupted the activation of the Killer Move, his body rapidly returning to its original state.
His Law-Heaven Phenomenon-Earth Killer Move was very special, composed of countless small Killer Moves, so even if it was stopped midway, he would not suffer a backlash from the Killer Move.
This prototype ultimately failed to be fully unleashed, but he could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within this Killer Move.
However, Yuan Fang already had a rough guess about the effect of this Killer Move:
When activated, his Law-Heaven Phenomenon-Earth Luck would manifest in a physical form, and he himself would merge with this Luck.
After entering the Law-Heaven Phenomenon-Earth form, defense, recovery, attack, and movement would all be comprehensively enhanced, at the cost of his own Luck decreasing.
It's just unknown how strong the amplification of this Killer Move truly is.
But Yuan Fang temporarily did not plan to use it, intending to fully unleash this Killer Move later when a suitable opportunity arose.
He knew that this Killer Move would become an important trump card on his future path, and he must not easily reveal it unless absolutely necessary.
