Chapter 1523

Fang clan’s killer moves land on the soul beast army, but green armor links together and splits the damage evenly, so a few deaths change little. Fang Zhi, a purple clothed female immortal, unleashes poisonous clouds and tens of millions of sparrows, yet the effect is low. Fang Di Chang says poison path is useless and green armor vegetable garden seems to have no weaknesses. Asked for ideas, Fang Yuan, whom Fang Di Chang calls Suan Bu Jin, finds none either but notes that the palace is much more reactive than before. Fang An Lei and Fang Yuan once fought it when it could only charge, and now it holds firm. Fang Di Chang fears it is stalling for time. ^{ch. 1523}

He calls the immortals back to the Immortal Gu Houses and has peach blossom maze attack. The maze is able to trap rank eight Gu Immortals. A forest grows and the maze becomes extremely offensive, as jade light waves send the outer beasts flying. Chen Yi is still suppressing Qing Chou and cannot control the palace personally, yet it bursts with profound light that gathers most soul beasts into the three immemorial ones. Those swell into gigantic monsters that block the waves entirely. The maze then turns into blooming peach blossoms whose petals form human figures, which Fang Di Chang names flowery wind warriors. He asks Fang Yuan to control some, and Fang Yuan controls twelve on his first attempt. ^{ch. 1523}

Fang Yuan finds each warrior can carry a killer move that fires on self-detonation. His ignited thought flying rock sets the three immemorial beasts aflame. Hundred and eighty slaves freezes one, and three more warriors blast it, but the palace flashes green light and heals it. The fight deadlocks, and Fang Di Chang, who has used the second of peach blossom maze’s three variations, finds the palace’s defense too strong. As Fang Di Chang is about to use the third, Fang Yuan instills hundred and eighty slaves into three warriors that explode on the winged black python. It stiffens, then breaks free of the enemy, enslaved by Fang Yuan as the second immemorial soul beast he obtains. ^{ch. 1523}

Chen Yi and Fang Di Chang are both shocked. Fang Di Chang calls enslavement path the weakness of green armor vegetable garden, asks Fang Yuan to keep using the move and promises that Fang clan will definitely compensate him heavily. Chen Yi snorts that it is a pity the beasts are only a soul beast army and not the palace’s own divine bean soldiers, which could not be enslaved so easily. Fang Yuan says he was lucky and the second beast is his limit, warns that another use carries a huge price, and asks what compensation is meant. Fang Di Chang, furious, reads this as extortion, since Suan Bu Jin can use the move again depending on the compensation. The alliance agreement bars Suan Bu Jin from lying about the price, yet an outsider extorts Fang clan because it has no strong enslavement path expert. ^{ch. 1523}
