Chapter 1868

Fang Di Chang scatters yellow jade bean seeds from Divine Bean Palace on barren land, and they grow into yellow bean divine soldiers. He activates the palace, and wind and rain work the land. Emerald-green light then makes the seeds grow explosively, so the soldiers will sprout after a day and a night. Divine bean soldiers are not an instant killer move and need a long time, which is why Chen Yi, influencing the palace against Fang clan, could only use soul beasts. ^{ch. 1868}

Back in the main hall, bean sprouts fill a small part of a mural. Painting path Immortal Gu makes the mural land real, and mature soldiers will leave it. The soldiers spend water path and wood path immortal materials, and Fang Di Chang can report the expense to Fang clan. The palace is already Fang Yuan’s possession, and the clan, kept in the dark, even helps with resources. ^{ch. 1868}

At Gu tribe headquarters in Eastern Sea, Fang Yuan’s clone Wu Shuai stops his killer move before a new batch of dragonmen that includes mermen. A merman Gu Immortal gifts him unmoving rotten water, and Wu Shuai accepts it because he needs it to raise arrow ants. Since he began raising army ants they have expanded at a horrifying speed, helped by Fang Yuan’s massive resources and greatly by Gu tribe and the mermen. He repays them by converting beastmen and mermen into new dragonmen. His strength is rising rapidly, and his control over Eastern Sea’s Gu Immortal world deepens through his merman connection and Qi Sea Ancestor’s influence. ^{ch. 1868}

Eastern Sea’s Merman Imperial Court is the sole variant human super force, kept alive by Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable’s help. Under huge pressure, with the five regions chaotic war about to start, its wise people see that the balance would definitely collapse and merfolk would definitely be the first target of human forces. After learning that fate Gu revealed dragonmen reign supreme, some of the higher-ups who had secretly helped Gu tribe proposed that merfolk become dragonmen, and a portion do. Wu Shuai sees the Merman Imperial Court investing everywhere for its race’s survival. He notes that human forces are especially wary of Heavenly Court. He may persuade merfolk Gu Immortals to join the war when Heavenly Court restores fate Gu. ^{ch. 1868}

In Beast Calamity grotto-heaven, a monster threatens Mountain Cliff City while Mountain Cliff City Lord is heavily injured. His disciple Zhan Bu Du, a clone of Fang Yuan, insists on risking immortal ascension to become a Combat Beast Warrior and display the arrowtail eagle’s complete strength. Seeing his mind is made up, the Lord waves him on. The monster’s slowed attacks are Zhan Bu Du’s secret manipulation, and the situation itself was planned beforehand. With a portion of the main body’s memories and foundation, his ascension is practically certain, but he acts out a risk to deceive the city and the grotto-heaven’s heavenly spirit. He advances without mishap, becomes a Combat Beast Warrior and defeats the monster. The crowd lifts him up, saying he might be the youngest Combat Beast Warrior in history, while the injured Lord looks on with a sincere smile of satisfaction. ^{ch. 1868}
