Chapter 1857

Fang Gong slams the table in fury when Fang Di Chang reports that Suan Bu Jin demands the clan’s theft path true inheritance, and he wants the lone rank seven cultivator killed. Fang Di Chang answers calmly that Suan Bu Jin is an extremely shrewd wisdom path Gu Immortal who picked a moment when refusing him is hard. Without him, refining Divine Bean Palace would be extremely difficult and take way too long. Rank eight Gu Immortals struck the clan not long ago, and the pressure comes from everywhere. Two dragon generals sent by Fang Yuan carried out that strike cleanly. The clan blames Western Desert’s super clans, demonic immortals or Heavenly Court. ^{ch. 1857}

Fang Gong calms down, since the clan truly needs Suan Bu Jin to take Divine Bean Palace and rise to the top. He agrees with a cold smile, meaning to put Suan Bu Jin in his place once the danger passes. Fang Di Chang notes that the man has propriety, because he asked for neither the wisdom path inheritance nor the secrets of the Immortal Gu Houses. Fang Gong replies that winning so bold a man’s loyalty will not be easy. Theft path was never the clan’s foundation, only a chance gain schemed from an otherworldly demon, and the theft path Immortal Gu House used against Dong Lu Chen was incomplete. After a round of discussion, Fang clan lets Fang Yuan browse the Thieving Heaven true inheritance. ^{ch. 1857}

Its essence is the killer move steal dao, which let Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable create theft path. Steal dao can take any dao mark in the world. The inheritance also records the theft path Immortal Gu House Thieves Den, which generations of the clan failed to repair. The clan’s Gu Immortals lack the theft path attainment for it, while Fang Yuan has great grandmaster, so he is inwardly moved. Demanding the house itself would still cross the clan’s bottom line. Fang Di Chang suspects nothing, since Fang Yuan had worked up to this interest by killing Wan Liang Han with great thief ghost hand and wisdom grasp. ^{ch. 1857}

Fang Yuan cannot tell whether the inheritance is complete and weighs looting the clan directly. Fang Gong is a rare strength path rank eight, inferior to Duke Long, yet Fang Yuan is not confident of defeating him conclusively, since Fang Gong once suppressed Chen Yi. A huge battle in a headquarters full of unknown arrangements would expose Fang Yuan and bring Western Desert’s righteous path super forces and Heavenly Court. He decides to help Fang Di Chang and keep the situation as it is. ^{ch. 1857}

Fang Yuan cooperates with seeming full effort, and Divine Bean Palace’s door finally opens to Gu Immortals. The clan celebrates, but then Fang Di Chang can make no progress at all. He tells Fang Yuan that the palace’s structure has changed completely and only a change to the whole wisdom path formation can move it forward. With no wood path great expert, the matter falls into an impasse. ^{ch. 1857}

Fang Yuan has many ideas and mentions none. He has had no chance to use karma divine tree, which would bring huge progress. He makes an excuse to roam, enters green ghost desert and secretly explores dream realms. He keeps trading with Chi Qu You and uses second aperture Gu to extort wood path dream realms from Southern Border’s righteous path. He becomes a wood path grandmaster. Karma divine tree now needs modifying with a suitable wood path Immortal Gu, which he can refine with Lang Ya Sect. ^{ch. 1857}

Doing so would halt his luck path Immortal Gu refinement. Two Eastern Sea immortals soul searched Fang Zheng and told Qi Sea Ancestor, so Fang Yuan knows Heavenly Court’s plan and Qin Ding Ling. He deduces that Heavenly Court is also rushing luck path Immortal Gu and has refined a small portion successfully, though not most. Giving up the race is the cost of switching, while persisting leaves him only the current karma divine tree, which is much harder against the palace. He has a vague premonition that wasting this chance leaves extremely low hopes of getting Divine Bean Palace later. ^{ch. 1857}
