Southern Immortals' Aspirations
In Heavenly Court, Fairy Zi Wei reports in shock that Wu Yong is leading Southern Border Gu Immortals near Infallible blessed land. Duke Long, unmoved, says they have finally shown up. Southern Border’s Gu Immortals are very united, and a fall of Infallible blessed land would waste the huge price Heavenly Court paid to force the Refinement Path Convention through. Duke Long says the leak of its location was expected and a super immortal formation already stands nearby. Fairy Zi Wei warns Wu Yong to remember their earlier cooperation if he wants to stay Southern Border’s Alliance Leader. He scorns her and does not reply. ch. 1706
Wu Yong unleashes the immortal killer move unlimited wind. A dark green wind grows into a huge tornado pillar, and the defending Heavenly Court Gu Immortals activate the super immortal formation. The wind erodes its halo until it creaks, and every method meant to weaken it shows little effect. Wu Yong says the move expends ten thousand of his wind path dao marks, but afterwards the wind is long lasting and only specific techniques can resist it. Fairy Zi Wei, moved by such determination, realizes she underestimated him. Even his mother Wu Du Xiu underestimated him until her deathbed. He turned Wu clan’s losses around amid Southern Border’s chaos, won reputation by returning Southern Border immortals’ Immortal Gu after working with Heavenly Court, and Lu Wei Yin, though Paradise Earth’s inheritor, could not topple him as Alliance Leader. ch. 1706
Wu Yong now brings all the Southern Alliance elites and disregards her threat, because Heavenly Court must not obtain the complete fate Immortal Gu again. This is the first time he has used unlimited wind, his trump card, and even Southern Border’s own Gu Immortals are shocked. A hole opens in the formation, and he orders everyone to charge in. The second layer formation answers with flying pink flowers. Tie Gan Ge, a peak rank seven, rains golden halberds and holds against its rank eight attack, while Shang Que and Yi Hei Ting help him. Rank eight formation path expert Chi Qu You deduces the weakness with Xia Liu Pei speeding his work, the formation slows, and Southern Border’s Gu Immortals destroy it. Chi Qu You admits his deduction method costs him lifespan, yet he will not hold back. ch. 1706
In the third formation, Chi Qu You finds it simple: the core is the biggest tree, standing in the forest’s middle. The trees are holy burial wood, which eliminates the power of any killer move, so they must be destroyed bodily. Vines guard them, and the formation is made of the forest’s dao marks. The immortals send in their ancient and immemorial desolate beasts. Half are sacrificed, some stand dazed, seven star internal conflict grass sets the ancient ones fighting each other, and beast digesting rotten qi obstructs the immemorial ones. ch. 1706
As Wu Yong is about to bring out Clear Jade Dripping Wind Tiny Bamboo Building, Ba clan’s rank seven Gu Immortal Ba Xiong volunteers. He cultivates transformation path with only peak rank seven battle strength, so he asks Lord Yi Hao Fang to support him. Ba clan’s first supreme elder Ba Shi Ba nods, and Yi Hao Fang uses his method on Ba Xiong. Ba Xiong becomes a giant and charges the center with Southern Border’s help, bathed in blood. He destroys the central holy burial wood, and three formations fall in a few minutes. Heavily injured, he leaves the rest to the others. ch. 1706
Wu Yong promises him huge merits in the Southern Alliance and a handsome reward. Ba Xiong replies that Lords Wu Yong and Chi Qu You moved him, and that Heavenly Court has gone overboard many times. Wu Yong agrees, and his confidence surges to ten times what it was. With Central Continent holding people’s united hearts and Southern Border’s immortals unified, he thinks no fortress can resist them. ch. 1706
