Chapter 1824

Fang Yuan owns Giant Sun’s complete self luck true inheritance and a portion of all living beings luck true inheritance. A look at the colors and shapes of luck tells him a person’s conditions. He deduces a lot of information from them. Cooking Luck Pot’s main ability is cooking luck, which can turn a dense black coffin luck, a sign of fatal danger, into fortune luck or peach blossom luck. The pot is the peak creation of Giant Sun’s self luck true inheritance, which studies a person’s own luck and how to modify it. Being only rank six, it can barely affect the luck of his rank eight main body, but on his clones its effect should be immediate. He definitely has to raise its rank, but regret Gu is inside the paradise, dragon whale grotto-heaven, and he lacks crucial elements to advance luck path Immortal Gu to rank seven. ^{ch. 1824}

In Beast Calamity grotto-heaven, Fang Yuan’s clone Zhan Bu Du, only rank one and broke, walks through the city’s largest Gu Master market to gather information. Gu Masters here, called Combat Beast Envoys, use Gu worms to nurture combat beasts or fuse with wild beasts and plants, and the market holds few Gu worms. Myriad beings assimilation transformation makes fusion easy, where outside it would cost more than ten times the price, so traditional Gu cultivation has been buried. Zhan Bu Du judges this to be the intention of Beast Calamity Immortal, who probably created the trend to control the living beings. Beast Calamity Immortal died after heavy injuries from his first myriad tribulation. ^{ch. 1824}

To take over the place, Zhan Bu Du must fuse with a wild beast or plant, and can then pay to join the Combat Beast Guild, its largest and sole super force. Its ranks rise from Combat Beast Disciple through Envoy and Warrior, a Gu Immortal level mostly held by city lords, to the one and only Combat Beast King. The structure is simple and crude. He plans to buy a Gu worm in a month and the lowest grade combat beast a month after, then join the guild to raise his strength rapidly. A shout warns him to look up as a black figure falls from the sky and an old man on a huge bird dives too late to catch it. ^{ch. 1824}

The black object crashes into a shop’s stairs and shatters, hurting people nearby, but Zhan Bu Du, closest to it, is completely unharmed. It is a desolate beast egg as tall as a person, and a young arrowtail eagle hatches and clings to him. The old man, a Gu Immortal, says his partner just laid the egg after thirty years of pregnancy. Having seen Zhan Bu Du first, the chick treats him as its closest kin. The old man calls the boy Little Du, apologizes because the egg almost killed him, and asks him to cultivate at his side, perhaps becoming a Combat Beast Warrior. Zhan Bu Du eagerly accepts, and they ride the arrowtail eagle away in plain sight. ^{ch. 1824}

Onlookers identify the old man as Mountain Cliff City Lord, who is expected to visit to negotiate with their city lord, and envy Zhan Bu Du’s luck. In Profound Literature grotto-heaven, a poetry competition is under way, and Great Scholar Shen praises the students’ scholarly aura and credits Teacher Jiang’s teachings. Teacher Jiang answers humbly that they are still young. Great Scholar Shen calls his literary battle with Teacher Jiang a tie and proposes passing the flower, in which three winning students recite poems, and Jiang agrees. Many students brighten at an incredibly rare chance, with two great scholars present, to spread their reputation. When the drums stop, Great Scholar Shen asks who holds the red flower, and Li Xiao Bai walks up the stage. ^{ch. 1824}
