Within the True Inheritance Secret Realm, no matter which True Inheritance it was, all contained Giant Sun's Will. Otherwise, how could the fated ones who came here smoothly receive these True Inheritances, especially those Immortal Gu?
It was just like clearing the trials in the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
Whenever a trial offered Gu worms as a reward, these Gu worms were previously refined by Giant Sun's Will.
When Gu Masters successfully cleared a trial and obtained these Gu worms, they could instantly refine them and collect them into their apertures. This was only possible because the Giant Sun's Will within the Gu worms actively yielded.
Following this principle, any Gu Master who was willing to give his own Gu worms to others could create the phenomenon of "instant refinement."
In the past, when Giant Sun's Will was asleep, refining wild Gu worms was slow. When Fang Yuan first exploited the True Yang Building, it was this loophole that he took advantage of.
Every True Inheritance was presided over by Giant Sun's Will.
This was precisely why the supreme Fortune True Inheritance had not actively flown to Ma Hong Yun earlier.
Now that the True Inheritance had flown into Ma Hong Yun's hands and recognized him as its master on its own, this was absolutely not what Giant Sun's Will wanted.
Giant Sun's Will was eager to control Ma Hong Yun. How could it allow him to develop and grow stronger, making him even harder to control?
Thus, the truth was as clear as day!
The supreme Fortune True Inheritance did not contain a shred of Giant Sun's Will.
Giant Sun's Will had actively withdrawn, which was why this supreme True Inheritance was acting on its own.
Afterwards, relying on the newly born wild consciousness, it submitted to Ma Hong Yun.
This raised another question.
Why did Giant Sun's Will suddenly withdraw for no good reason?
Fang Yuan recalled the time of his second move to kill Ma Hong Yun. Suddenly, for no reason at all, a surge of Giant Sun's Will had appeared from nowhere!
At this, all the fog of confusion dispersed.
Fang Yuan had used his third method to temporarily expel Giant Sun's Will from the True Yang Building.
Then he entered the True Yang Building, successfully persuaded Tai Bai Yun Sheng, and revived Soul-Searching Mountain.
Afterwards, he returned and attempted to take control of Imperial Court Blessed Land. During his second move to kill Ma Hong Yun, he was blocked by a sudden burst of Giant Sun's Will.
At that time, Fang Yuan was extremely puzzled.
But now, he understood.
This mysterious Giant Sun's Will had been drawn out from those True Inheritances.
Giant Sun's Will was also desperate. To turn the tide, it had made this move.
It had almost succeeded in turning the tide, but unfortunately, Fang Yuan was far too decisive in his actions and directly met it with a fierce clash.
In the end, this forcibly drawn-out Giant Sun's Will was reduced to a final small strand, taking control of this floor's trial.
"So, that the supreme Fortune True Inheritance was able to save Ma Hong Yun in time was also my doing? If I hadn't drawn out the Giant Sun's Will and expelled it from the tower, if I hadn't clashed fiercely with it, how could this scene have come to pass?"
"I never thought that in this third attempt, I would ultimately be stopped by myself!"
Thinking this, Fang Yuan let out a long sigh, and the murderous intent towards Ma Hong Yun in his heart completely dissipated.
The current Ma Hong Yun was completely protected by the Fortune True Inheritance. Fang Yuan, as a mortal, had no way to break through this defense.
"Sigh, I told you to save him earlier, but you wouldn't listen!" In his mind, Mo Yao calmed down and sighed in regret.
Her tone carried blame: "If you had saved him and earned Ma Hong Yun's acknowledgment, you would be protected by the Fortune True Inheritance just like Zhao Lian Yun is now. The current Fortune True Inheritance is a newly born wild consciousness, like a child, setting up almost no defenses internally. If you were inside the Fortune True Inheritance, you could freely understand its contents! This was a supreme blessing, and you just gave it up..."
Helping Ma Hong Yun would bring benefits. Opposing Ma Hong Yun brought nothing but heavy injuries upon Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan sneered coldly.
He had done it, and he felt not a single shred of regret.
As he rapidly retreated and healed his wounds, he said to Mo Yao, "Even if I can't touch this Fortune Inheritance, do you think Giant Sun's Will will just sit by and watch?"
This Fortune True Inheritance was one of only three supreme True Inheritances in the True Inheritance Secret Realm. How could Giant Sun's Will simply let it recognize a master like this?
In Giant Sun's Will's heart, entrusting the Fortune True Inheritance to Ma Hong Yun was actually acceptable.
But Ma Hong Yun's heart was with the Otherworldly Demon. That was absolutely unacceptable!
Giant Sun's Will had a special purpose. When the main body created it, it was given the specific mission: "When you see an Otherworldly Demon, you must do your utmost to immediately kill it."
Now that Zhao Lian Yun was protected by the Fortune True Inheritance, if Giant Sun's Will wanted to kill this Otherworldly Demon, it had to eliminate the obstacle of the Fortune True Inheritance.
Thus, the entire forest was enraged.
Countless treants rose from the ground and besieged the Fortune True Inheritance.
A large number of treants also began to intertwine with each other. Their roots and vines tangled, slowly forming giant treants, each over a hundred zhang tall, emitting an aura that shocked even Fang Yuan.
Giant Sun's Will marshalled its full strength, determined to kill Zhao Lian Yun!
Fang Yuan's retreat, however, was quite smooth.
Eliminating the Otherworldly Demon was Giant Sun's Will's top priority. The appearance of the Fortune True Inheritance only drew more aggravation.
Fang Yuan's threat was placed lower on the list.
Giant Sun's Will also knew that, for now, it could do nothing to Fang Yuan. Choosing the lesser of two evils, with its limited strength, it simply focused entirely on dealing with the Fortune True Inheritance.
Soon, Fang Yuan approached the battlefield between Tai Bai Yun Sheng and Hei Lou Lan.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng was at a disadvantage, but Hei Lou Lan was also unable to secure a decisive victory.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng was a healing Gu Immortal and a master of flight. The former made him excel at attrition warfare, while the latter made him slippery and difficult to pin down.
Their battle was at a stalemate.
They fought from the sky to the ground, their attacks formidable, and the shockwaves devastated the surrounding trees, leaving a scene of felled and collapsed trees strewn across the area for miles around.
"Senior Brother Tai Bai, I'll help you!" Fang Yuan shouted.
The words "Senior Brother" immediately touched Hei Lou Lan's sore spot, instantly reminding him of Central Continent. It was because among the five regions, the other four followed clan traditions, while only Central Continent had a thriving sect system.
Hei Lou Lan's eyes blazed with fury as he roared like a bear or a giant ape, "As expected, you are long-planned villains! You two brothers have hidden yourselves deep enough! Since you have jumped out looking for death, I will grant your wish!!"
Saying this, he threw four punches from afar at Fang Yuan and Tai Bai Yun Sheng.
Fierce fist qi surged forth, transforming into human-shaped phantoms in the air, all in the likeness of Hei Lou Lan.
The four fist shadows split into two streams, one charging at Tai Bai Yun Sheng, while the other three focused entirely on Fang Yuan!
Fang Yuan was a mortal, while Tai Bai Yun Sheng was a Gu Immortal. But striking at the weak rather than the strong was the most common tactic.
Three humanoid phantoms to kill Fang Yuan, and one to prevent Tai Bai Yun Sheng from providing support.
"Fall back!" Tai Bai Yun Sheng was startled and quickly shouted a warning.
He was very clear about the power of this Strength Dao killer move.
He himself had received many gifts from Fang Yuan in Hu Immortal Blessed Land, adding many defensive Gu.
But now, after fierce fighting, Tai Bai Yun Sheng's defensive Gu worms were almost completely depleted, and he had been severely injured multiple times. This showed the formidable power of Hei Lou Lan's Strength Dao killer move!
