The Twin Lance Gu Immortal charged at Fang Yuan!
"Gu Immortals… were they really this single-minded, or was it the will of Heavenly Dao? Hmph!" Fang Yuan's gaze was cold as he watched the Twin Lance Gu Immortal rush toward him, but he neither dodged nor retreated.
Boom!
In the next instant, he opened the gateway of his Supreme Immortal aperture and released a massive beast of staggering proportions.
"Ah! This—this is—!!!" The Twin Lance Gu Immortal felt a vast, overwhelming aura crash down upon his body and mind in an instant.
His charge ground to a halt, his fighting spirit crumbling in a single heartbeat.
What Fang Yuan had released was nothing else but the Supreme Sky Eagle, which had already grown to the level of an ancient era supreme beast!
A fully grown Supreme Sky Eagle was enormous—several times larger than even a giant whale, and not at all inferior in size to that ancient dragon-form desolate beast.
An ancient-era Supreme Sky Eagle—eighth Transformation level combat power!
Shock.
The enemy Gu Immortals were utterly stunned, staring with their mouths agape. Not a single one of them had anticipated that Fang Yuan could still harbor such a trump card.
The stakes on this card were far too high!
The Twin Lance Gu Immortal was so shaken that his entire body was on the verge of trembling.
The atmosphere of the entire battlefield shifted dramatically in an instant.
Fang Yuan stood proudly atop the eagle's head, coldly snorting: "Did you really think I had no reason to remain confident throughout this battle? Even if your battlefield killer move is formidable, could it possibly contain my Supreme Sky Eagle?"
The enemy Gu Immortals trembled upon hearing this.
"The Supreme Sky Eagle!"
"Legend says this eagle is a Space Dao ancient supreme beast that can bypass the Sky Barrier Walls and fly straight into the Nine Heavens of antiquity!"
"More than that. It can also pierce through space and enter directly into a cave heaven. Our battlefield killer move is completely incapable of trapping it!"
The Gu Immortals hurriedly exchanged messages, some of them growing flustered.
Fang Yuan revealed a confident smile at the corner of his mouth: "Even if you deploy that dragon-form ancient supreme beast, I am fully capable of escaping. But everything I told you before was the truth! I have no need to deceive you at all. If I were lying, such a clumsy fabrication would be easy to see through. Why would I go to all that trouble for nothing?"
The enemy Gu Immortals fell into a collective silence.
The mountain-sized Supreme Sky Eagle was the finest possible proof of Fang Yuan's words.
The Twin Lance Gu Immortal was closest to the eagle, and its massive form filled his entire field of vision. Though the Supreme Sky Eagle had its eyes gently narrowed, the cold light that seeped through the slits still made him feel as though he had plunged into an icy abyss.
"Have you figured it out yet? Is it real or not?" The Gu Immortals whispered among themselves through secret transmissions.
It was almost laughable.
When Fang Yuan had been ambushed earlier and seen the terrifying lineup of these Gu Immortals, the very first thing he had done was wonder whether it was an illusion.
Now, with the Supreme Sky Eagle released, the Gu Immortals were experiencing exactly the same kind of doubt.
"It's real!" That sixth Transformation Gu Immortal named Xue'er was the first to speak, her voice barely concealing her panic. "And look at its blood and vital energy—they're extremely vigorous. Don't be fooled by its seemingly dormant, harmless appearance! The moment it launches an attack, it will be devastating."
Soon, the other seventh Transformation Gu Immortals all confirmed it.
"How? How can someone with merely a blessed land possibly contain an ancient supreme beast!"
"As unbelievable as it is, this is ironclad fact."
"What do we do? If they can deploy an ancient supreme beast, must we bring out the Ancient Stone Dragon as well?"
In truth, the Grey Cloud Dragon Beast within the Grey Cloud War Puppet killer move's space was nothing more than a hollow shell. Although its aura was genuine, it was far from capable of wielding true eighth Transformation combat power.
There were many reasons.
The Grey Cloud War Puppet killer move itself lacked an eighth Transformation core Gu—it simply wasn't designed for existence at that level.
On top of that, the true bodies of the Snowman and Stoneman Gu Immortals were situated deep underground. It was only after they invested their various Gu and immortal yuan into the Grey Cloud War Puppet battlefield killer move that the puppet could be formed, achieving combat power comparable to their main bodies.
In other words, the Grey Cloud War Puppet's combat strength came from remote control by the Gu Immortals, drawing upon the immortal yuan and various Gu hidden inside its body.
Within the battlefield killer move, while a Grey Cloud War Puppet corresponding to the Ancient Stone Dragon's true body could be formed, the Ancient Stone Dragon itself possessed no Gu Immortal intelligence—it couldn't be remotely controlled, let alone freely employ immortal Gu. Its combat power was therefore impossible to manifest.
For this reason, that eighth Transformation combat force had not been deployed even once since the battle began.
Fang Yuan, being characteristically cautious, had not dared to rashly probe the matter.
Of course, that was only natural.
Just moments ago, the Twin Lance Gu Immortal himself had been too intimidated to attack the Supreme Sky Eagle for the same reason.
The moment Fang Yuan released the Supreme Sky Eagle, the situation underwent a complete upheaval.
On the side of the non-human Gu Immortals, their eighth Transformation combat power was merely a facade, yet they had no way of knowing Fang Yuan's true situation—believing that his strength was lacking.
And Fang Yuan?
He too was unaware of the non-human Gu Immortals' hand, not knowing that their so-called ancient dragon-form desolate beast was also just a show. He likewise believed that his own strength was thin.
Of course, in terms of the actual truth, Fang Yuan's assessment was correct.
At this very moment, Fang Yuan was also quite tense inside.
The Supreme Sky Eagle was on the verge of starving to death, and he had used Blood Path means to disguise it as appearing vigorous and full of vitality. If it were attacked, the ruse would be instantly exposed.
But the enemy didn't dare to attack.
Why?
