Ample Preparation
Only the desolate beast snow monster’s head remains. Fang Yuan’s strength path immortal zombie sets a hand on it and floods it with a huge amount of self will Gu that wipes out the little heaven’s will inside completely. At the crucial moment the head explodes, but the blast carries no force, and the zombie emerges unscathed. ch. 1095
Stripping heaven’s will this way only makes the snow monster self-detonate, never subduable. Even so, cleansing one costs more self will Gu and time than he can spare on the many still here. ch. 1095
Even selling enslaved snow monsters would be dangerous. Green, one of Shadow Sect’s first split souls, was researching the life-and-death immortal aperture inside Earth Trench’s super Gu formation when a huge explosion infested countless immortal materials with heaven’s will, and he threw them all away. ch. 1095
Fang Yuan returns to his plan: kill every snow monster completely before the calamity. Ordinary ones are easy; ancient ones are hardest of all. He misses flying sword Immortal Gu, whose sword marks targeting death worked extremely well against ancient snow monsters, unlike the wasteful triple layered sword wave. ch. 1095
Thankfully, strength path Immortal Gu is his again. He uses giant hand now, far cheaper. He first tries beast enslavement Gu; when it fails and the enraged beast gives chase, he lures it away before killing it, leaving the rest unalerted. ch. 1095
Days pass. Fewer than thirty percent of the snow monsters remain, but fewer than ten days remain before the calamity. Fang Yuan moves to Mini Southern Border, where his original immortal zombie body is kept, and builds a sealing Gu formation of hundreds of self will Gu, Shadow Sect’s own method. ch. 1095
His immortal zombie body sits at the formation’s center, sealing Spring Autumn Cicada inside. Heavenly Court’s rank eight restriction path Gu Immortal Wei Ling Yang had sealed it, and even after regaining both from Ying Wu Xie, Fang Yuan could learn nothing of the seal despite many attempts. Unable to drink the River of Time, the cicada was weakening toward death. Not long ago Wei Ling Yang’s method seemed to wear out and the seal lifted, revealing the heaven’s will hidden inside it, which only refinement path can remove. Fang Yuan dares not leave the body outside, and he fears that heaven’s will would work with the second earthly calamity, so he seals it here. ch. 1095
Three more days pass and the snow monsters are gone from his aperture. He cleanses the last heaven’s will with self will Gu at heavy cost. With little immortal essence left and treasure yellow heaven still closed, he waits for it to reopen while readying his second tribulation. Land spirit meanwhile cuts the reward for teaching the hairy man Gu Immortals and raises the reward on the falling star hound. ch. 1095
Five days before the calamity, Fang Yuan moves Dang Hun Mountain into his sovereign aperture with pulling mountain Immortal Gu, after using myriad self to alter its appearance completely. Without Landscape as Before he would not have dared this earlier. ch. 1095
The commotion draws land spirit, worried since Dang Hun Mountain, unlike Luo Po Valley, belongs solely to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan offers a prepared excuse. He plans to leave Lang Ya blessed land for a time. Land spirit believes him, worried that he is leaving with the mountain instead of exterminating the hound. ch. 1095
Fang Yuan exchanges all his sect contribution points. He puts up wisdom Gu as collateral to borrow many Immortal Gu and immortal essence stones, finally replenishing his green grape immortal essence in full. Still without treasure yellow heaven open, he moves some resources to Lang Ya blessed land for safekeeping. ch. 1095
Land spirit, surprised at the amount, calls him very skilled at managing an aperture. It is in fact less than thirty percent of the whole; the rest stays hidden from his suspicion. Half a day before the calamity Fang Yuan reaches the northern icy plain, Reckless Savage Demon Venerable’s making and thick with his true meaning, though heaven’s will reaches even there. He picks a spot for his aperture and waits vigilantly, certain only that this calamity outmatches the first. ch. 1095
