Chapter 1113

Fang Yuan needs huge immortal essence to wipe out the regenerating treemen. He wishes he were a fire path cultivator. Fire then starts on its own from the treemen’s corpses, burning their leaves away completely and killing a great number as it advances toward him. Stunned, Fang Yuan rules out heaven’s will helping him. A huge, sixty-meter figure rises among the flames: a giant disaster blazing tree, an ancient desolate plant rare but not extinct. Any tree can become one where a forest fire kills countless lifeforms, and immemorial red heaven often held them. ^{ch. 1113}

Its body burns without end, and nearness alone brings bad luck. Fang Yuan judges heaven’s will truly insidious, aiming this tree at the good luck Dog Shit Luck gives him. Inside his own aperture rather than the wild, it drains earth qi and curses him directly. Left unchecked, he judges he would soon turn extremely unlucky, risk a huge disaster, and be unable to refine Immortal Gu at all. ^{ch. 1113}

The tree stands close to Dang Hun Mountain, and even with his defenses raised its huge flames dry his eyebrows and hair. He leaves the mountain. He trusts Landscape as Before to restore it before complete destruction. Sword marks targeting death and poison spit fail outright, flying sword only makes the tree shake and heal, and triple layered sword wave’s damage regrows within breaths. ^{ch. 1113}

He calls out strength path giant hand, but the tree, nearly half the size of Dang Hun Mountain, does not budge. The hand slowly melts in the flames until almost half is gone. Fang Yuan dispels it. A second hand grabs Dang Hun Mountain instead, carrying Pulling Mountain’s power. He hurls the mountain onto the tree, and the ground shakes intensely as the tree is suppressed beneath it, leaving only a ring of fire around the mountain’s base. ^{ch. 1113}

The tree cannot move under the mountain, whose soul path dao marks attack it, yet incredible vitality and tenacity keep it struggling as flames roast the rock. It is not easy to finish off. Looking around, Fang Yuan sees a sea of fire, confirming heaven’s will meant only to nurture this tree, never to help him. More such trees are forming, and though the first is not yet destroyed, many others growl, rise, and turn into giant blazing treemen with one target: Fang Yuan. ^{ch. 1113}

Under Dang Hun Mountain, the first tree becomes a treeman, struggling to flip the mountain and shaking it intensely with incredible strength. The situation grows as bad as it can be. Fang Yuan cannot ignore them as he ignored the snow monsters, because slow though they are they drain earth qi, damage the aperture’s foundation, and bring him much bad luck. A smile spreads across his face: he is thankful he made preparations. ^{ch. 1113}

At the same moment in Southern Border, Shang Xin Ci stares in a daze into a lamp that seems to show Fang Yuan’s old appearance, murmuring of Brother Hei Tu, for the third time. Zhou Quan later asks Xiao Die about it. She says only that it began after the higher-ups met her. Ye Fan goes to speak with her, and through a hole in her shut study door sees her whispering to a piece of paper, asking Brother Hei Tu what kind of person he is. The paper is the black demon’s arrest warrant, carrying his own drawing, and Ye Fan hesitates before leaving unnoticed, troubled by the same question. ^{ch. 1113}

On the northern icy plain, Chu Du activates rank seven calamity beckoning Immortal Gu at Fang Yuan’s signal, and the blessed land’s entrance opens. Orioles are forced out first, then the blazing trees, dragged out unwilling and furious without managing to resist, while heaven’s will rumbles thunder in fury to no use. Two hours later the calamity ends. Fang Yuan collects his aperture and appears on the northern icy plain. Chu Du, having gained much true meaning, recites a verse on earning the blessing of azure clouds, his voice a Domination Immortal’s full presence, and asks Fang Yuan’s name. Fang Yuan answers with his own verse, that life matters little against calamity and he flies free regardless of mud, then gives his name plainly: Liu Guan Yi. ^{ch. 1113}
