Chapter 1542

Inside Lang Ya blessed land, Central Continent Gu Immortals scatter to set up an immortal formation that would bring reinforcements to Feng Jiu Ge. Lang Ya land spirit, inside the silver giant, cannot split his forces, so he chooses to kill some Central Continent Gu Immortals first and win the race. The silver giant pushes Feng Jiu Ge away with a roar and completes a space path killer move despite Feng Jiu Ge’s triple extreme sound. One step carries it over a hundred li. It seizes a Central Continent rank seven expert from the ten great ancient sects, breaks his killer move with two profound lights, and squashes him completely to death in a silver cage. Lang Ya land spirit declares that Gu Immortals of those sects are merely so and resolves to ignore Feng Jiu Ge, a tough nut with rank eight battle strength. ^{ch. 1542}

Heavenly Giant Solor, the number two ancient battle formation, has rank eight battle strength. The hairy man Gu Immortals were once too weak and did poorly, so Shadow Sect damaged Refinement Cauldron and left unharmed. The black haired land spirit’s reforms created Lang Ya Sect, and Fang Yuan’s guidance has greatly raised the fighting standards of the hairy man Gu Immortals. Now the formation can truly display that strength, and even Central Continent rank seven Gu Immortal experts have to die. ^{ch. 1542}

In fetus earth maze in Southern Border, the mortal life continues, and Fang Yuan, mostly healed after some months, sighs that it seems he really lost his memories. He wants to marry Xiu Niang, who truly loves him, but Shu clan and her Gu Master parents, who look down on a mortal, stand in the way. The root cause is his low aptitude. Troubled, he follows music from his garden well, pushes a white-jade door of bricks, and is dragged in. A night later he has the Virtue true inheritance, which is very incomplete because of its long history. He awakens his aperture that night, becomes a rank one Gu Master with several mortal Gu, and gains a huge burst in strength. He hides it, since exposure would get him killed, and learns the inheritance needs a heart of justice. ^{ch. 1542}

When the old lady, his mother, falls ill, a rank two Gu Master refuses to treat her for pitiful fees. Fang Yuan catches a fish from an icy lake for the Gu Master, who is extremely moved by his filial piety and heals her. A rank two accumulate virtue Gu then appears in his aperture. According to the inheritance it refines itself when he does good deeds and acts kindly, and greater kindness raises its rank. Its greatest use is to change his aptitude into the Righteous Virtue Physique, which the vague description calls only inferior to the ten extreme physiques yet free of their flaws. ^{ch. 1542}

Fang Yuan does good deeds without pause, his aptitude keeps improving, and two years later he is a rank two Gu Master. Saving a child who fell in water exposes his identity, and a Shu clan elder, sure that a mere mortal at rank two definitely has a huge secret, attacks him. In an intense battle Fang Yuan surpasses his limit and uses the mortal killer move virtuous submission, which uses up all his accumulate virtue Gu. The unhurt elder cries, kneels, and begs forgiveness for attacking someone so virtuous. Dazed, Fang Yuan subdues him and gains a lot of crucial information about the Shu clan young master. ^{ch. 1542}

Several years later his Gu Master identity is exposed, though other Gu worms conceal his greatest secret. Xiu Niang’s parents change their opinion but still refuse to let their daughter marry someone so poor. The Shu clan young master, upset that she loves Fang Yuan alone, keeps making trouble and finally demands a battle to the death. Fang Yuan agrees, but right before the fight Shu clan Gu Masters jointly attack him, and he escapes to the mountains heavily injured. He would die if he fought. Yet losing the match without fighting would force Xiu Niang to marry the young master. ^{ch. 1542}

A huge beast tide approaches, and Fang Yuan is overjoyed that Shu clan will lose terribly. His smile fades as he thinks of his mother, Xiu Niang and his neighbors, and he runs back to warn the city. The inheritance has ingrained virtue in him, though Shu clan Gu Masters would likely kill him there. Thanks to his warning, the city’s Gu Masters prepare and defend themselves. The city lord praises him greatly for the huge risk, and the duel is postponed indefinitely. ^{ch. 1542}

In the year-long defensive battle he saves countless mortals and Gu Masters, his strength grows drastically as he refines countless accumulate virtue Gu, and his reputation soars. Afterwards he beats the young master fair and square, obtains absolute victory, and spares his life. The young master kneels and submits, calling him Shen San. Three years later the city lord passes his position to Fang Yuan, already a rank five Gu Master, who marries Xiu Niang the same day. ^{ch. 1542}

In the wedding room Xiu Niang calls him Darling San and says she knew she did not love the wrong person. Fang Yuan answers that he feels a little empty inside. When she says many people admire him, his tone turns cold, and he says they merely admire his fortune, authority, strength and love life. Xiu Niang grows more and more uneasy. Fang Yuan sighs that everything that happened merely amounted to this, and at the next moment everything collapses. ^{ch. 1542}
