The Dark Jade Snake Cavern was one of Central Continent's most famous super resource points.
It belonged to Heaven's Envy Tower, one of Central Continent's ten great ancient sects. The scale of resources produced annually by the Dark Jade Snake Cavern ranked in the top five across Central Continent, and the variety was equally impressive, encompassing Slavery Path, Transformation Path, Earth Path, Darkness Path, Space Path, and Poison Path.
An immense number of venomous creatures bred and thrived within the Dark Jade Snake Cavern, with the Dark Jade Snake reigning as the undisputed overlord—a predator specialized in hunting poisons. Each Dark Jade Snake was an Ancient Desolate Beast, born from jade itself, scaleless throughout its body, pale green and lustrous like jade, emitting a pure fragrance.
The most precious treasure within the Dark Jade Snake Cavern was the Dark Jade Snake itself, and finding one was no easy task. Not only were the snakes small and fond of stillness, but the cavern possessed a complex geological structure with thousands of tunnels. Due to the Space Path Dao Marks contained within, smaller caverns often enclosed larger ones, with cave systems nested layer upon layer.
Although Heaven's Envy Tower owned this super resource point and had set up Immortal Formations, they still hadn't brought it under complete control. Each year, capturing Dark Jade Snarters required Heaven's Envy Tower to dispatch multiple powerful Gu Immortals to explore the depths.
But now, for Fang Yuan, none of that posed any trouble.
"Rise." After a brief period of preparation, Fang Yuan activated his killing move.
The next moment, the earth shook and the mountains trembled.
The entire Dark Jade Snake Cavern, shrouded in billowing clouds of dust, slowly rose into the air. Under Fang Yuan's power, it was then temporarily compressed and successfully absorbed into his Supreme Immortal Aperture.
This was the eleventh super resource point Fang Yuan had claimed.
"Star Constellation Immortal Venerable, if you don't hand over my clone, I'll strip every last resource point from your Central Continent!" Fang Yuan didn't forget to deliver his ultimatum.
But Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's side showed no reaction whatsoever, clearly committed to defending Heavenly Court to the last—determined to resurrect Primordial Origin Immortal Venerable and unwilling to be swayed by anything happening outside.
Fang Yuan let out a cold snort and continued his work.
He arrived at the source of the Falling Sky River.
This river cascaded down from a height of ten thousand zhang, its billions of gallons of water crashing onto the river surface below with tremendous force. The roaring sound of the current resembled endless peals of thunder. The collision generated enormous plumes of mist, forming a dense fog that blanketed the surrounding hundreds of li.
This river had come into existence when Bo Qing charged toward the Ninth Transformation realm.
The Falling Sky River had not only carved out an inland ocean but also, as its current thundered forward, formed the longest river that bisected the entire Central Continent. It cut diagonally across the continent, ultimately flowing out through the eastern reaches of Central Continent and into the Eastern Sea.
Even the merging of two days had only slightly diminished the Falling Sky River's scale—it remained vast and magnificent, a true spectacle of nature.
Having collected the Dark Jade Snake Cavern, Fang Yuan now came to the Falling Sky River's source.
"I'll take it!" Fang Yuan acted.
Moments later, the Falling Sky River had been reduced by a full sixty percent!
That sixty percent of the river was all absorbed into his Supreme Immortal Aperture.
The inland ocean at the Falling Sky River's source dropped by several hundred zhang. The river's middle and lower reaches would inevitably see their water levels plunge dramatically, exposing the riverbed—causing comprehensive negative impacts on the surrounding vegetation, crops, temperatures, and mortal livelihoods.
Fang Yuan withdrew and swiftly departed the Falling Sky River, arriving at the Spirit Tide Spring.
This was a super resource point controlled by Ancient Soul Gate. They had once sent Yang Feng to guard it, but Sleeper Elder had managed to seize it instead.
But now Yang Feng had long since followed the main force of Ancient Soul Gate into Central Continent's Heavenly Court.
Fang Yuan easily broke through the Immortal Formation and collected the Spirit Tide Spring.
After the Spirit Tide Spring came the Jar River.
This river wound through the eastern part of Central Continent like a slender jade ribbon. Willow trees lined its banks, swaying gently in the warm breeze. The waters of the Jar River always flowed with such languid grace, like a beautiful long song with a melody soft and lingering. Along the river grew abundant Jar Grass.
Wind Cloud Manor governed the Jar River, and every year they held a Jar River Festival.
But before long, the Jar River—along with its entire watercourse—was swept into the Supreme Immortal Aperture by Fang Yuan. Even if future Jar River Festivals were held, they would have to take place within the Supreme Immortal Aperture.
After the Jar River came the Dragon Hiding Cavern.
The Dragon Hiding Cavern had once imprisoned the legendary Ancient Desolate Beast Emperor Treasure Born. It contained massive quantities of Slavery Path and Rule Path Dao Marks, along with the remnants of a colossal Immortal Formation that Heavenly Court had once set up there—making it an invaluable reference for most Formation Path Gu Immortals.
Once the Dragon Hiding Cavern entered the Supreme Immortal Aperture, the next target was Lake Heart Mountain.
This was the headquarters of Spirit Affinity Hall.
Having been chosen as a sect base by one of Central Continent's ten great ancient sects, it was naturally a place of exceptional spiritual energy and talent.
Lake Heart Mountain itself was a super resource point, not only encompassing peaks such as Secret Peak, Minor Cold Peak, Passion Peak, Fierce Flame Peak, and Heavenly Peak, but also housing facilities like the Life Token Chamber and Time Path Cultivation Immortal Formations.
Of course, the Life Token Gu within the Life Token Chamber had already been removed, and the Immortal Gu within the Time Path Cultivation Immortal Formation had been taken as well. However, most of these facilities remained intact—after minor repairs, they could be put to tremendous use.
Soon, Lake Heart Mountain became a scenic landmark within the Supreme Immortal Aperture.
After Lake Heart Mountain came Mountain Turtle Valley, followed by Prison Valley, Red River Beach, Hundred Joint Woodland, Phosphorescent River, Earth Energy Stone Forest, Quiet Rain Valley...
Fang Yuan plundered without restraint, utterly unabashed!
The departure of Central Continent's ten great ancient sects and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable's determined defense of Heavenly Court left Fang Yuan facing absolutely no resistance.
His efficiency at stripping resources was extraordinary!
If someone like Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had wanted to relocate these resource points, he would have been forced to rely on Luck Path or Blood Path methods, simulating other Path styles, and laboriously moving each one.
Fang Yuan, however, possessed the Supreme Immortal Body, where Dao Marks did not clash—meaning he could employ methods from any Path. Moving caverns was naturally best suited to Earth Path techniques, while plundering forests called for Wood Path methods.
Furthermore, Fang Yuan held a vast number of Immortal Gu, with enormous reserves. Setting aside his Ninth Transformation Immortal Gu, even Eighth Transformation Immortal Gu were as easy to refine as drinking water.
