This Earth Vein Immortal Gu was shaped like an earthworm, but when held in the hand, it felt surprisingly heavy—not slippery or cold at all. Instead, it was warm and pleasant to the touch.
It was semi-transparent throughout, like a piece of brown amber, exquisitely refined.
With this Seventh Transformation Earth Path Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan could now assemble the Five Boundaries Limit Formation.
The improvements to the Five Boundaries Limit Formation had been successfully completed by Fang Yuan's Time Path clone. The Wisdom Halo was as reliable as ever, and Fang Yuan's Formation Path and Rule Path foundations provided strong support.
For the new Five Boundaries Limit Formation, Fang Yuan had not only added the Earth Vein Immortal Gu, but also a Formation Spirit and Formation Flags.
With a Formation Spirit, Fang Yuan would have an extremely powerful assistant to help him operate the entire formation, constantly monitoring every shift in the wind.
With Formation Flags, Fang Yuan could directly move the formation out of his immortal aperture, or bring it back in from outside the five regions.
The Ancient Year Beast Fishing Formation had been in continuous use with steady progress.
The Pool of Years already contained more than twenty Ancient Year Beasts of seven different species.
Over half of all species had been collected, but whether he could gather every last one in the future, even Fang Yuan couldn't say for certain—that would depend on luck.
To strengthen his own Luck Path, Fang Yuan began ordering the Mao Men Gu Immortals to start refining Luck Path Immortal Gu.
The number of Immortal Gu in Fang Yuan's possession was vast, having long surpassed the hundred mark, but Luck Path Immortal Gu were few and far between.
Especially since Fang Yuan had already grasped the Luck Path True Inheritance, once Luck Path Immortal Gu were refined, he could put them to immediate use.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Court's Luck Path foundation was thin.
Therefore, cultivating Luck Path strength would yield obviously high returns.
As for Luck Path immortal materials, although they were rare and difficult to collect, Fang Yuan had so many Southern Border Righteous Path Gu Immortals he could extort.
Once these Luck Path immortal materials were gathered, Fang Yuan had the Mao Men Gu Immortals refine them.
Since this wasn't about upgrading Immortal Gu but about refining Sixth Transformation Luck Path Immortal Gu, even if the refinement failed, the losses would be something Fang Yuan could bear.
His foundation was now substantial, his resources abundant—a massive improvement compared to the same period in his previous life.
Regarding the practice of Immortal Killer Moves, the Five Restrictions Profound Light Qi could be set aside for now. Although he hadn't practiced the Time Flying Blade killer move, Fang Yuan had gained quite a few new insights.
He had come to see the essence of this move more clearly: it was like an eraser, using the power of the Time Path to erase the enemy, while simultaneously erasing himself.
The drawback of memory dissipation that came with this move could not be eliminated. This was determined by the Time Flying Blade's own structure—once this flaw was removed, the entire framework of the killer move would be completely overturned.
In that case, the Time Flying Blade's characteristic of overwhelming offensive power would vanish entirely.
Fang Yuan could only reluctantly accept this drawback.
His main body had made considerable progress, but his clones had made even more.
The Pure Dream Clone's soul was gradually changing, beginning to harmonize with the clone's body.
Fang Yuan's Dragonman Clone had already advanced from a First Transformation Gu Master to a Sixth Transformation Dragonman Gu Immortal, possessing a Superior Blessed Land.
Fang Yuan began devoting more time to exploring dream realms.
During this period, he had conducted numerous transactions with Chi Qu You, and his immortal aperture had accumulated a considerable amount of dream realm material.
Fang Yuan's soul departed his body and plunged into a Qi Path dream realm.
His vision changed completely—he found himself atop a hill, surrounded by layer upon layer of mist, with bone-chilling winds blowing all around.
He looked down at himself: Sixth Transformation Gu Immortal cultivation, clothes tattered, covered in numerous wounds, some still bleeding fresh blood.
"What scene is this?" Fang Yuan was pondering when suddenly a violent gust of wind blew from behind him, scattering the mist to reveal three Ink Men Gu Immortals.
"Where do you think you're going, Wei Yushu?!"
"Die!!!"
Before the words had even faded, three killer moves slashed toward Fang Yuan.
This change came far too suddenly—Fang Yuan hadn't yet familiarized himself with the Gu in his immortal aperture, and was already plunged into a life-or-death crisis!
Bang!
The next moment, his body was blown to pieces, dying miserably on the spot.
Fang Yuan could only withdraw from the dream and return to reality.
"I didn't expect that the moment I entered the dream, I'd hit such a difficult trial and die once."
He examined the injuries on his soul.
Surprisingly, the soul injuries weren't severe—only slight damage that could be healed with just over a hundred Courage Knowledge Gu.
"It seems that after I obtained the Desolate Soul, my soul underwent a qualitative transformation and can now withstand stronger dream realm backlash."
After resting and recovering, Fang Yuan once again ventured into the dream realm.
The same familiar scene—upon entering the dream, Fang Yuan immediately inspected his Gu.
He discovered that he only had one Immortal Gu in hand. It was shaped like a cockroach, grayish-white, with a stone-like texture but very light. When touched, it felt cool to the touch with a slightly rough surface.
Drawing on his memory, Fang Yuan quickly identified this Gu: "This is the Qi Transformation Gu."
A Sixth Transformation Qi Transformation Immortal Gu.
Besides this, there were numerous Fifth Transformation Qi Path Mortal Gu.
And three portions of immortal materials: a bundle of Dark Iron Hard Qi, a bundle of Orchid Vitality, and a bundle of Wandering Dragon Qi.
Fang Yuan was somewhat confused: "The Qi Transformation Gu is only auxiliary in nature—how can I possibly fend off the pursuers behind me with just these Mortal Gu?"
While he was thinking, a loud shout came from behind.
"Where do you think you're going, Wei Yushu?!"
"Die!!!"
Bang.
The next moment, Fang Yuan was blown to pieces once again.
Returning to reality, Fang Yuan healed his injuries while deep in thought: "Based on the current situation, it's clear that I need to activate an Immortal Killer Move to withstand those three pursuers."
"An Immortal Level Qi Path Killer Move, then..."
Fang Yuan's Qi Path attainment was quite low, but he had a rich collection of resources.
The Rob Heaven True Inheritance and Giant Sun True Inheritance were one thing, but the Shadow Sect True Inheritance contained a vast scope, including records of many Qi Path Killer Moves. At the same time, the Lang Ya Sect had their own collections.
Even without all of that, based solely on the massive number of Qi Path Immortal Gu recipes in the Lang Ya Sect, Fang Yuan could use his Refinement Path attainment to convert them into Immortal Killer Moves.
With such a rich theoretical foundation, and aided by the Wisdom Halo, Fang Yuan quickly devised a killer move to overcome the dream realm's first trial.
However, the Qi Path Killer Move was still quite unfamiliar to him.
So he practiced more extensively in reality.
He naturally didn't have a Qi Transformation Immortal Gu, but he could at least simulate the move to some extent and train with it.
Afterward, when he returned to the dream realm, Fang Yuan finally had confidence.
After several attempts, Fang Yuan successfully activated the killer move.
His entire body was encased in a layer of pitch-black armor, and the three pursuing Gu Immortals could no longer instantly kill him.
"Wei Yushu, you actually dare to resist?!"
"Just a mere slave—how audacious!"
"You dare offend your master—death is too good for you! Kill him! Grind him into meat paste and bone fragments!"
The three Ink Men Gu Immortals roared continuously, surrounding Fang Yuan and launching a frenzied assault.
Fang Yuan managed to hold on for a brief while before rapidly losing ground, ultimately being killed by the three of them once more.
