Great Thief Immortal Gu
Furious, but unwilling to fail so near a goal of generations, Fang Di Chang asks Fang Yuan what compensation he wants. Fang Yuan asks for one rank seven Immortal Gu. Fang Di Chang agrees and adds a promise of another if Fang clan gains Divine Bean Palace. Fang Yuan insists on having it now, before he pays the huge price of subduing the remaining immemorial soul beast. A Fang clan immortal angrily asks whether he distrusts the clan, and Fang Yuan answers that the price will heavily damage his foundation. Fang Di Chang offers a rank seven Immortal Gu from headquarters, and a rank seven information path Immortal Gu from his sleeve lists the six on offer. ch. 1524
Sure that Fang Di Chang has hidden others beyond these six, Fang Yuan chooses a rank seven great thief Gu. Fang Di Chang is surprised, since it is a theft path Immortal Gu and Suan Bu Jin, the name Fang Yuan goes by, is a wisdom path Gu Immortal. He wonders whether Fang Yuan, fearing a stall, named a random Gu to drop at once if refused, then confirms the choice and agrees. Using a killer move, he retrieves the Gu from headquarters into Inquiry Dock. With his help, Fang Yuan easily refines it. ch. 1524
As a theft path great grandmaster who lacked a theft path Immortal Gu, Fang Yuan can now create theft path killer moves very easily. Ghostly concealment, a rank nine killer move created by Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable, has been relatively useless to him. It hides him from ghosts and soul beasts, but exposes him when he uses a killer move and weakens ghost soldier garment. It needs no immortal essence and runs on its own, the ability of a theft path supreme grandmaster. Only supreme grandmasters can exceed this world’s limits and restrictions to a certain degree. He cannot activate it himself. The great thief Gu is the key, and with mortal Gu and some time he can draw on part of ghostly concealment’s power. ch. 1524
With Fang clan’s patience dwindling and no wish to become its enemy, Fang Yuan kills the two immemorial soul beasts he just subdued, inside his sovereign immortal aperture. The beasts cooperate in their own deaths, and he gains two huge immemorial soul cores, very rare rank eight immortal materials. His soul beasts can support control of only two immemorial beasts, and hundred and eighty slaves needs a huge number of them. Killing the two is the huge price he named to Fang Di Chang. He then fakes injury with attitude Gu, shaking, pale and bleeding, and the watching Fang clan immortals feel better. ch. 1524
Fang Di Chang urges him on, and after three tries Fang Yuan subdues the bull body leopard tail beast through the warriors. He spits blood and nearly faints. The Fang clan immortals fuss over him, but he waves them off, in truth acting, and their anger dissipates. Next, he subdues the final immemorial soul beast, thanks to flowery wind warriors storing several killer moves at once. ch. 1524
