Chapter 1423

In Western Desert, Night Temptress and Immortal Concubine Qing Lan fly around the conspicuous red dream realm holding Dancer Hong Yun and Thousand Transformations Ancestor’s trapped will. They set up an immortal Gu formation to seal it, since research into dream realms is still elementary and few Gu Immortals have methods against them. Night Temptress, ranked above her fellow concubine, defends while Immortal Concubine Qing Lan finishes the formation. Immortal Concubine Qing Lan seats it with Pass Gu, a rank seven rule path Immortal Gu. The formation settles into a light yellow cloud. Pass Gu looks like a flightless cockroach the size of a fetus’ fist, flat and shining in a metallic color, giving a feeling of toughness. The two concubines, relieved they can now return almost instantly, leave without incident. ^{ch. 1423}

Hidden nearby, Feng Jiu Ge recognizes Pass Gu at once. He laments that Thousand Transformations Ancestor holds it. He has long wanted it to extend yang pass tune and cut the mortal Gu, difficulty and time that the move needs. He created obtain treasure song to refine wild Immortal Gu, but judges the odds of winning Pass Gu that way too low. Snatching an Immortal Gu from another is very difficult, something only Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable managed with great success in his time, and Feng Jiu Ge does not show himself. ^{ch. 1423}

Feng Jiu Ge tails the pair back toward myriad statue desert. He finds them abandoning any search for Fairy Cui Bo. His plan to use Thousand Transformations Ancestor’s temper to pressure Fang Yuan has failed entirely. Summoned by transmission, Feng Jiu Ge meets two Heavenly Court rank eight Gu Immortals. The pair had once helped block Wu Yong for him, then lost the upper extreme heavenly eagle to Fang Yuan’s luck path methods and drew a reprimand from Fairy Zi Wei. Lu Wei Yin had saved the eagle and stripped Heavenly Court’s investigative killer moves from it. Only Longevity Heaven excels at luck path, and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable never joined Heavenly Court or passed it his luck path true inheritance. ^{ch. 1423}

They report her judgment that Thousand Transformations Ancestor’s strange indifference gives a huge chance he is injured and weakened, and he could even be dead. Her order is to probe him for his Reckless Savage true inheritance, or, failing that, to sow strife in Western Desert ahead of the five regions’ chaotic war. The two are sent to reinforce Feng Jiu Ge. ^{ch. 1423}

Fang Yuan, no longer pursued, stops using Omni-directional Travel to spare his allies’ dao marks. He lands with Bai Ning Bing and the rest to complete the self cleansing immortal Gu formation, already set up in Mini Central Continent. He fuses it with the incomplete immortal formation taken from Dancer Hong Yun. That incomplete formation’s formation flag Immortal Gu had already joined the self cleansing one, and now the formation spirit crosses over too, after which he removes surplus Gu worms. The finished formation can now strip unfavorable dao marks from him and the others. ^{ch. 1423}

He removes self love Immortal Gu, the formation’s first core. The formation nearly collapses, but the formation spirit saves it by substituting a mass of self love mortal Gu. Fang Yuan judges this emergency hold will last about fourteen hours before self love Immortal Gu must be returned. ^{ch. 1423}

Fang Yuan takes it out not to test the formation spirit but for another objective. He combines self love Immortal Gu with affection Immortal Gu, instilling red date immortal essence and activating many mortal Gu. He raises a vast tidal wave of self will that forms into a giant of over a hundred feet resembling himself. He activates immortal killer move myriad self, and the giant vanishes. Ten thousand myriad self clones appear inside Mini Central Continent. Myriad self is elevated to a new level, and Fang Yuan’s battle strength rises with it. ^{ch. 1423}
