Immortal Killer Move — Golden Silk Sword!
Fang Yuan roared and unleashed his killer move.
In an instant, countless golden threads burst from his body, spreading outward in all directions like a hedgehog's quills, piercing indiscriminately.
Shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh…
The three Gu Immortals beside him went pale with horror. They wanted to dodge, but it was far too late — their bodies, minds, and souls were pierced by tens of thousands of golden threads.
Three thuds rang out in succession as the three Gu Immortals collapsed to the ground, devoid of any trace of life.
Fang Yuan panted heavily. After such a grueling battle, he had finally slain a formidable enemy. He was utterly exhausted.
The world around him slowly dissolved, rapidly dissipating until nothing remained. Only Fang Yuan's desolate soul, covered in wounds, remained suspended within the Small Green Sky of the Supreme Immortal Aperture.
"At least I passed the final scene."
"That was truly difficult."
"If I hadn't used the Dream Decoding killer move at the most critical moment, finding that tiniest flaw… I would have failed again!"
After his soul returned to his body, Fang Yuan still felt a lingering sense of emotion.
This was a Sword Dao dream realm.
Within this dream realm, Fang Yuan's strength was meager. Especially in the final scene, every Gu Immortal enemy was stronger than him.
He could only try again and again, exploiting the mutual interference and entanglement between his enemies to create and seize openings, so that he could gain a foothold.
In the end, slaying three powerful Gu Immortal enemies was the accumulated result of over a hundred attempts, and it still relied on a considerable amount of luck.
"Thank goodness I passed."
"Not bad. My Sword Dao realm has advanced to the Grandmaster level."
Fang Yuan checked his progress and was quite pleased.
He actually possessed a fair number of Sword Dao Immortal Gu, but his Sword Dao realm had always been insufficient.
This time, he had compensated for his weakness. He believed that in the future, his strength in the Sword Dao would see an all-around improvement.
After resting a moment and recovering fully, Fang Yuan continued exploring the dream realm.
"This is very likely a Human Dao dream realm."
Fang Yuan's desolate soul arrived before the next dream realm, his gaze carrying a hint of expectation.
Extorting the Righteous Path factions of the Southern Border had been the right choice. It had allowed Fang Yuan to obtain and explore a vast number of dream realms.
The value of these dream realms was immense for him.
Because what Fang Yuan lacked was not resources, not Immortal Gu, not killer moves, not Immortal Gu recipes — what he lacked was realm advancement and practical experience.
His desolate soul entered the dream realm.
The world before his eyes transformed once more.
This was a battlefield.
Smoke and fog filled the air. The roar of battle shook the heavens.
"Patriarch, be careful!" The moment Fang Yuan took in his surroundings, he heard someone shouting beside him.
Fang Yuan immediately sensed danger and dodged.
However, his body could not keep up with his thoughts. A wave of intense, searing pain struck him.
Fang Yuan crashed to the ground, staring at the basin-sized hole in his chest — only half his heart remained.
"This…" Fang Yuan was speechless. He mustered all his strength and shouted, "Where is the healing Gu Master?"
No one answered.
The world shifted violently, rapidly darkening.
In the next instant, Fang Yuan's desolate soul suffered a devastating blow and was expelled from the dream realm.
Relying on the Courage Gu, Fang Yuan's desolate soul quickly recovered. After resting briefly, he entered the dream realm once more.
"I dodge!" The moment he entered, Fang Yuan immediately shifted position.
"Patriarch, be careful!" a Gu Master beside him shouted.
Fang Yuan suddenly felt his movements slow, and he took a fatal blow once again.
The moment he fell to the ground, realization dawned on him: "The Gu Master who just warned me was clearly a traitor. He used a path Gu technique — on the surface, he appeared to be warning me to be careful, but in reality, he activated a mortal killer move that immobilized me!"
"There's no healing Gu Master nearby, and there are traitors among my side. It seems I'll have to rely on my own strength to break through this stage."
In the dream realm, Fang Yuan's strength was severely restricted — he could only use the techniques available to the characters within the dream.
Originally, Fang Yuan was reluctant to do this, because the reaction time given to him was far too short. He had no opportunity to check what Gu insects he had.
Before he could even investigate, he would be killed.
Fang Yuan could only accept failure again and make his third attempt.
Thud!
He died once more.
Back in reality, Fang Yuan frowned in frustration: "How is this possible? I can't inspect my own empty orifice? I don't even know what Gu insects I have — how am I supposed to fight?"
The dream realm restricted him, preventing him from inspecting what Gu insects he possessed.
Guessing? Obviously unrealistic.
Fang Yuan made his fourth attempt.
Unlike the previous two explorations, this time Fang Yuan employed the Dream Decoding killer move.
"Patriarch, be careful!" a Gu Master beside him shouted.
Thud!
Fang Yuan took a fatal blow and collapsed to the ground.
"Patriarch!"
"Impossible! The Patriarch clearly possesses the Justice Gu — how could he be defeated so easily?!"
