Chapter 1310

Forced to answer in kind, Xia Fei Kuai unleashes soaring essence strike, a heavy ball of light. It sinks Fang Yuan’s enormous divination tortoise form over a foot into the ground but leaves not even a slight dent on its shell. Fang Yuan’s divination tortoise transformation, a rank seven killer move built on change form Immortal Gu and divination tortoise shell Immortal Gu, gives him a shell tougher than a real ancient divination tortoise’s. Xia Fei Kuai’s move imitates strength path by light path means. ^{ch. 1310}

Fang Yuan answers with a second killer move, Vajra Shell. He breathes out countless small tortoise-shell thoughts, cored on rank six Vajra Thought Immortal Gu combined with rank seven perseverance Immortal Gu and mortal Gu. This was Vajra Shell’s first public showing, in Southern Border and even across the five regions. The thoughts swarm Xia Fei Kuai’s next soaring essence strike and consume it completely before it lands. ^{ch. 1310}

Xia Zhuo Mo, very sensitive to thoughts as a wisdom path immortal, recognizes the shells are thoughts. Fang Yuan mocks him for working it out. Fang Yuan had not meant to conceal it: combined with the transformation, his golden thoughts simply took the form of dark shells. The thoughts multiply extremely fast, driven by the roughly fifty thousand transformation path dao marks Fang Yuan gained from killing Wu Yi Hai and the two immortals inside the regional wall. Ordinary rank seven Gu Immortals hold about ten to thirty thousand main path dao marks by comparison, and the shells soon cover the whole valley. ^{ch. 1310}

Because the spar’s rule keeps Fang Yuan defending only, Xia Fei Kuai prepares unmolested. The long preparation saw light wheel required was safe only because that rule barred Fang Yuan from attacking while he readied it. He activates saw light wheel, a rotating serrated disc meant to cut through the shells. It destroys over six thousand of the thoughts before their self-destructive charges shatter it completely. Fang Yuan praises the move as extraordinary. Xia Fei Kuai and Xia Zhuo Mo are left humiliated. ^{ch. 1310}
