Inside Liu Chen's immortal aperture, the Heavenly Sword immortal aperture, it was serene, with only a faint breeze echoing in his ears. Liu Chen's figure appeared like a phantom, quietly materializing beside the captured Snow Pine Child.
Snow Pine Child had been trapped near the desolate beast, Flying Blue Whale, for some time now. During this period, he constantly observed Liu Chen's every move, and the fear in his heart was gradually replaced by calm. He knew that Liu Chen would not easily kill him, especially since Liu Chen had the full ability to end his life in the Northern Ice Plains, rather than going to such lengths to imprison him in this Blessed Land.
"Your Excellency, how do you intend to deal with me?" Snow Pine Child looked at Liu Chen, asking calmly.
Liu Chen's lips curved slightly, revealing a faint smile, his gaze like a torch, as if it could penetrate Snow Pine Child's heart.
"You are quite courageous," Liu Chen said slowly. "Become my subordinate and sign an alliance agreement with me."
With that, a rank six Slave Immortal Gu suddenly appeared in Liu Chen's hand, but he did not use it directly; instead, he put it away.
"Although I possess this rank six Slave Immortal Gu, I do not wish to waste it on a Gu Immortal like you," Liu Chen's voice was low and powerful. "Currently, I have borrowed Fairy Li Shan's Mountain Union Immortal Gu and drafted an alliance agreement. You might as well take a look."
Saying this, Liu Chen handed an alliance agreement to Snow Pine Child.
Snow Pine Child took the agreement and read it carefully. However, when he saw the terms in the agreement, his face instantly darkened.
"Your Excellency, you want me to become your slave. Even with a threat to my life, this Old Ancestor will not agree to such an agreement," Snow Pine Child threw the agreement back to Liu Chen without hesitation, his words resolute.
The moment Snow Pine Child saw the Slave Immortal Gu recipe, his heart almost gave in, and he nearly agreed on the spot. However, just as he was about to speak, Liu Chen's subsequent words suddenly made him calm down.
Liu Chen's words revealed an unyielding and firm attitude, seemingly leaving no room for negotiation. Snow Pine Child couldn't help but start to wonder if he still had some room to bargain.
Just as Snow Pine Child was hesitating, Liu Chen exerted another form of coercion. He mercilessly told Snow Pine Child that he had only two choices: either die, or sign the agreement and become his slave. Faced with such a cruel choice, a surge of fear welled up in Snow Pine Child's heart.
However, Liu Chen immediately threw out another irresistible bait for Snow Pine Child. He mentioned that he happened to have a rank seven Frost Immortal Gu of the Ice Dao, and if Snow Pine Child willingly became his slave, this Immortal Gu could be lent to him for use.
Hearing this news, Snow Pine Child's eyes lit up. One must know that even Old Ancestor Xue Hu, hailed as the number one person in Northern Plains, only possessed four rank seven Ice Dao Immortal Gu. And now, Liu Chen was actually willing to lend him such a precious Immortal Gu for use; this was simply an irresistible temptation.
Snow Pine Child's heart was instantly overwhelmed by greed and desire. He knelt down without hesitation, respectfully addressing Liu Chen as master, and expressed his willingness to become his slave. At this moment, the allure of that rank seven Immortal Gu had far surpassed his desire for freedom.
"Very good, then let's sign the alliance agreement facing this mountain," Liu Chen said with a slight smile. His voice, though not loud, echoed in the silent immortal aperture, as if the whole world could hear his words.
With that, Liu Chen reached out and took out a Mountain Union Immortal Gu, transformed from an Imitation Immortal Gu, from his embrace. Liu Chen gently held this Immortal Gu in his palm, then pointed to the highest mountain peak in the immortal aperture, and continued, "Let this mountain be our witness; we shall establish our alliance here."
Seeing this, Snow Pine Child quickly nodded and responded, "Yes, Master." His voice revealed a trace of reverence and anticipation.
Liu Chen smiled faintly and handed the Imitation Immortal Gu in his hand to Snow Pine Child. Snow Pine Child carefully took the Immortal Gu, as if it were an incomparably precious treasure. He gazed at the Immortal Gu in his hand, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
Snow Pine Child took a deep breath, composed himself, and then, following Liu Chen's instructions, made the alliance agreement facing that mountain. The terms of the agreement were almost harsh, but Snow Pine Child signed his name without hesitation.
After signing the agreement, Snow Pine Child looked up, his gaze fixed on the rank seven Frost Immortal Gu. This Immortal Gu was lent to him by Liu Chen, and for Snow Pine Child, this was undoubtedly a great gift.
Liu Chen looked at Snow Pine Child's performance and nodded in satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, the rank seven Frost Immortal Gu flew like a bolt of lightning to Snow Pine Child's front. Snow Pine Child hastily reached out to catch it, fearing that the Immortal Gu would suddenly fly away.
Thus, Liu Chen gained another Gu Immortal subordinate... "They've arrived!"
At this moment, Fang Yuan, who was quietly staying in the blood pool of Fox Immortal Blessed Land, suddenly felt a sensation, as if a mysterious power was calling to him.
He slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the blood in the blood pool, which churned around his Immortal Zombie body, emitting waves of bloody scent.
Fang Yuan, however, keenly caught a hint of an unusual feeling—it was the feeling of his younger brother, and this sensory image even directly appeared in the sky of the Blessed Land, making it clear for everyone remaining in Fox Immortal Blessed Land to see.
This was not an ordinary sensation, but an Immortal Gu resonance. Through the clever combination of various Blood Path Gu, a Killer Move specifically used for locating blood relatives was formed. This Killer Move could not only precisely determine Fang Yuan's location but also, with the power of Immortal Gu resonance, simultaneously determine the hidden location of Fox Immortal Blessed Land.
Meanwhile, on Heavenly Ladder Mountain, two Gu Immortals, He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu, were standing by, ready for battle. They were tasked with the main attack on Fox Immortal Blessed Land. These two powerful and experienced Gu Immortals were full of confidence in this operation.
He Fengyang was seen holding an Immortal Gu—Tuoyu—which he had borrowed from the Grand Elder. He took a deep breath, fully activating this Immortal Gu, and instantly unleashed an Immortal Path Killer Move.
"Immortal Path Killer Move: Break Down the Door."
This Killer Move struck heavily on the barrier of Fox Immortal Blessed Land. With a loud bang, the previously impenetrable barrier shattered like a mirror, and space also fragmented, revealing the internal scenery of Fox Immortal Blessed Land.
However, at the moment the barrier shattered, an alluring blue movie streaked past like lightning, rushing directly into Fox Immortal Blessed Land at an astonishing speed. It was so fast that even He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu did not have time to react, only watching it rush into Fox Immortal Blessed Land first.
"Junior Brother, what happened?" Tai Bai Yun Sheng was the first to arrive, looking anxious. He looked around and finally found Fang Yuan's location. When he looked up at the sky, he was stunned by the anomaly above and quickly asked.
Following closely, Liu Chen and Hei Lou Lan also hurried here. They, too, were attracted by the scene in the sky, their faces showing expressions of surprise.
"Rank six Information Path Immortal Gu resonance," Liu Chen said, gazing at the Immortal Gu anomaly above. He was all too familiar with the name of this Immortal Gu; if it weren't for this Immortal Gu being outside the Blessed Land, he would probably have unhesitatingly activated Formless Hand and grabbed it back.
Ever since learning the Killer Move Formless Hand, Liu Chen's desire for Immortal Gu had grown stronger. Now, whenever he saw an Immortal Gu, he would feel an irresistible urge to claim it for himself and study it thoroughly.
"What is that?" Hei Lou Lan also asked curiously, her gaze fixed on the mysterious Immortal Gu, her eyes filled with doubt.
"It's nothing major," Fang Yuan replied calmly. "I was just about to finalize the Guts Gu transaction with Immortal Crane Sect, but I didn't expect them to suddenly attack our Blessed Land. However, according to our previous plan, I'm going to bring Fairy Li Shan back now. You two find a place to hide for now. After I return, Old Bai and I will deal with them. When the time is right, you can come out."
Facing the sudden attack from Immortal Crane Sect, Fang Yuan showed no panic. He quickly explained the counter-strategy to Liu Chen and Hei Lou Lan, as if everything was under his control.
The moment the alluring blue movie rushed into Fox Immortal Blessed Land like a ferocious beast, He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu exchanged glances, a subtle smile appearing on their lips simultaneously.
This Earth Calamity was powerful, but for beings like them, it was also a considerable aid. They leisurely followed behind the alluring blue movie, entering the Blessed Land.
Furthermore, the Earth Calamity alluring blue movie would recklessly attack the master of the Blessed Land, which could also guide them to Fang Yuan's location.
Upon entering the Blessed Land, a powerful force of heaven and earth swept towards them like surging waves, seemingly intending to Seal the Mortal Gu on their bodies. However, He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu showed no fear, for they possessed the might of the rank seven Myriad Self Immortal Gu.
Under the protection of the rank seven Myriad Self Immortal Gu, He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu could still freely use Mortal Gu within the Blessed Land, without any hindrance.
"Immortal Path Killer Move—Close the Door and Bolt It!"
He Fengyang lightly shouted, once again activating his Immortal Path Killer Move. A dazzling light suddenly flared, like a solid barrier, quickly repairing the shattered Blessed Land barrier.
This barrier was not only incredibly sturdy but also completely isolated any prying eyes from the outside world.
Fox Immortal Blessed Land reverted to a sealed world, with only He Fengyang, Fairy Cang Yu, and the alluring blue movie present within it.
However, He Fengyang's action drew dissatisfaction from the Gu Immortals of the other Ten Great Ancient Sects.
The alluring blue movie, like a fierce beast, furiously attacked Soul Shaking Mountain. Its power was like a storm, yet, despite the alluring blue movie exerting all its might, it could not advance even a single step on Soul Shaking Mountain.
Meanwhile, in the sky, He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu leisurely overlooked the battle below. They appeared indifferent to the alluring blue movie's attack, as if they had already made up their minds.
He Fengyang's lips curled into a triumphant smile as he shouted towards Soul Shaking Mountain, "Fang Yuan, aren't you coming out yet? This Soul Shaking Mountain might be able to withstand the alluring blue movie's attack, but it absolutely cannot stop our footsteps. We have the ability to weaken the power of this Soul Shaking Mountain to almost nothing, and by then, even that alluring blue movie will be enough to kill you!"
His words revealed an undisguised threat, as if Fang Yuan had already become their captive. After all, in the eyes of He Fengyang and Fairy Cang Yu, Fang Yuan was merely an ordinary Mortal Gu Master who had been pushed forward. Now, believing themselves to be victorious, they naturally hoped that Fang Yuan would wisely surrender and obediently offer up Soul Shaking Mountain.
