Chapter 1479

Fang Yuan brings the variant human Gu Immortal Sixth Hair into his sovereign immortal aperture at Heaven Sealing Mountain, a mountain built to seal heaven’s will, to help refine Spring Autumn Cicada. He trusts Sixth Hair for his effort refining Immortal Gu and because Sixth Hair, already a Shadow Sect member in contact with Ying Wu Xie, already knew of the aperture. This refinement involves Spring Autumn Cicada and is extremely important. Fang Yuan needs the help of this refinement path Gu Immortal. Using refinement path Immortal Gu and mortal Gu borrowed from Lang Ya Sect, Fang Yuan activates a refinement path Gu formation. With a loud boom, a golden light pillar plunges into the mountain and pins the immortal zombie body sealed inside, which creaks and starts to break under the pressure. ^{ch. 1479}

Fang Yuan steadies the pillar and takes out a living desolate beast, and a sword light removes its head so the pillar can drink its blood until the corpse dries up. He then kills seven desolate beasts with a modified seven kill blood path Gu refinement method, and the pillar absorbs all their blood until it has turned completely red. He obtained the method by trading Shadow Sect inheritances for Lang Ya Sect’s. ^{ch. 1479}

Sixth Hair processes several flower Gu materials into a hundred flowers concentrate while Fang Yuan holds the pillar steady. Fang Yuan condenses the giant blood pillar to a tree trunk’s length and thickness. He throws the concentrate into the sky as a pink rain that feeds partly into the blood pillar and partly into the immortal zombie body through the formation. The blood pillar shrinks until it disappears, and the formation speeds up and holds a temporary connection among the immortal zombie body, Spring Autumn Cicada and the Gu materials. In his previous life he never obtained a refinement path immortal formation, and now he holds the details of many and can reshape them with his formation path grandmaster attainment. The formation then releases golden cloud divine wood, and as it disintegrates, matching wooden markings, amber like dewdrops and delicate clouds appear on the immortal zombie body. ^{ch. 1479}

Fang Yuan spends a huge amount of immortal essence on the refinement, and his mind strains under immense pressure. He can barely continue. Sixth Hair, having finished processing the flowers earlier, is already rested and ready to take the formation over. Fang Yuan hands control of the formation to Sixth Hair and sits down to rest, in a substitution step he had specially designed so that Sixth Hair’s different immortal essence and aura would cause no flaw in the refinement. Normally a Gu Immortal cannot be swapped out mid refinement without flaws, but Fang Yuan had deduced this handoff amply in advance. ^{ch. 1479}
