Chapter 1516

Divine Bean Palace chases Fang Yuan. Far away, Chen Yi, sent by Heavenly Court’s wisdom path great expert Fairy Zi Wei, sits on a small mound with his aura almost entirely concealed. His immortal killer move raises green smoke that forms a tree of dozens of very weird fruits. He ends it. He has understood the entire flow of events. ^{ch. 1516}

Three hundred thousand years ago, Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable journeyed, invincible in the world but disguised as a mortal Gu Master. At a village a child begged him to revive his dead mother, and he refused, since people cannot be resurrected. The child left with hatred, and green smoke emerged above the Venerable’s head. His rank nine immortal killer move karma divine tree had reacted, showing that this small cause would become a great and disastrous effect. He had created it, inspired by Limitless Demon Venerable’s true inheritance, to trace root causes through fate and luck. He did not kill the child at once, following the decree of fate. He left behind his Immortal Gu House Divine Bean Palace, tossing it into the village well. ^{ch. 1516}

After a sandstorm buried the village, the palace passed among mortals to Qing clan. Qing clan recognized it as the Venerable’s possession and became extremely happy and arrogant. This angered Spectral Soul, not yet a venerable, who slaughtered the whole clan. With the clan near destruction, its first supreme elder sent the clan inheritance into the palace and set up a revival method. The clan’s countless fragment souls were drawn in, and as green ghost desert formed they could not revive but fused into an unprecedented legendary immemorial soul beast. ^{ch. 1516}

It named itself Qing Chou, wanting revenge on Spectral Soul. Spectral Soul had become venerable and vanished, so Qing Chou wanted revenge on his friends and family, but the palace imprisoned it. Genesis Lotus had arranged the palace to eliminate a bad effect, and its cause, his rejection of the child, grew until it nurtured Qing Chou. Qing Chou can now manipulate the palace for some time and open an entrance. Old Ghost Bai Jun and Eagle Concubine ventured in and were suppressed into its slaves. Qing Chou refined rank eight Immortal Gu Soul Beast Token, which it nurtured on its body, and gave it to Old Ghost Bai Jun. Qing Chou wanted the token’s soul beast army to help suppress the palace. ^{ch. 1516}

The moment Old Ghost Bai Jun moved, he met Fang clan’s immortals and Suan Bu Jin and failed, and the matter was exposed. Chen Yi thinks Qing Chou may have set the ambush because Fang clan also wants the Qing clan inheritance. He had hoped to take over the palace with his predecessor’s inheritance, but a super force and a legendary beast are now involved. His wood path killer move karma divine tree is only rank eight. He vanishes to wait for a chance to strike. ^{ch. 1516}

Fang Yuan wonders how the enemy finds his true body. Born in the palace, Qing Chou gained some of karma divine tree’s power, an obsession rooted in revenge, so it easily discerns anyone closely related to Spectral Soul. The method is wood path, not wisdom path, and Fang Yuan’s Spectral Soul true inheritance makes the slaughter of Qing clan a bad effect passed on to him. His disguise does not deceive Qing Chou, yet it hides him from Chen Yi, who is focused on the palace. ^{ch. 1516}

Fang Yuan judges that the enemy is after Fang clan, that he almost died fighting, and that this is now Fang clan’s problem, so he flies toward Fallen Flower Hall. Fang An Lei orders Fang Yun and Fang Leng to help her control the hall, save Suan Bu Jin first, then fight Divine Bean Palace. Qing Chou wants to kill Fang Yuan, who does not know it, while Fang Yuan and Fang clan both think Qing Chou is after Fang clan. Chen Yi thinks the same, judging Suan Bu Jin unlucky to be implicated. ^{ch. 1516}
