Chapter 1875

Night Temptress turns into Thousand Transformations Ancestor and kills Wei Feng, a rank eight Gu Immortal of Heavenly Court. He opens his immortal aperture to take in all the fainted female immortals, then crushes Wei Feng’s head with his right hand. The Ancestor had meticulously laid this trap and waited for a bite, but Fang Yuan never left the warship and never took the bait. Heavenly Court’s three immortals, shaken, wonder how a second Thousand Transformations Ancestor can exist. Fang Yuan feigns perplexity and denies knowing anything. He praises the Ancestor for killing a rank eight in one move, which stirs hatred on both sides. ^{ch. 1875}

Fang Yuan concludes that the earlier Ancestor is Myriad Statue Palace and that the real Night Temptress is inside it helping to control it. The real Ancestor hid among the concubines to protect them and use them as bait. From his first life he knows the palace can turn into the appearance of any statue made inside it and copy its innate abilities and methods. He pretends to know nothing, since small advantages decide fights between experts. ^{ch. 1875}

Xing Ye Wang demands to know which one is real. Truthfully naming himself the real one, the Ancestor lies that the other is his twin brother, Myriad Transformations Ancestor, who nods and says the exposed secret was worth a rank eight’s life. Heavenly Court’s three exchange glances in silence, and whatever the truth, the power structure has changed hugely, to three against three, all with rank eight battle strength. Wan Zi Hong laughs that myriad statue desert is now unguarded for Heavenly Court’s Gu Immortals, and asks whether they brought Myriad Statue Palace. Fang Yuan knows Myriad Transformations Ancestor is the palace itself, so even if Heavenly Court raids the desert, it definitely holds nothing valuable. The Ancestor’s expression changes slightly as he ridicules Heavenly Court for calling itself the righteous path, a performance even Fang Yuan inwardly praises. ^{ch. 1875}

Even after he kills Wei Feng, the Ancestor stays weak, since Heavenly Court maintains overturning heaven and earth and its remaining strength exceeds his and Fang Yuan’s together. Wan Zi Hong becomes the main attacker. Xing Ye Wang and Prince Feng Xian support her. Her blood petals make blood spout from the Ancestor and from Myriad Transformations Ancestor, who is hurt because the palace has human form. The Ancestor flies out of the myriad li adaptation formation to counterattack, while Myriad Transformations Ancestor stays to guard it. Xing Ye Wang and Prince Feng Xian hold the Ancestor back, and her helpless withering ruins his long range attacks. ^{ch. 1875}

Wan Zi Hong then uses yellow flowers thinning life, and the Ancestor’s expression changes intensely as his body thins and his lifespan shrinks rapidly. He cannot break it and retreats, controlling the palace to fight his chasers. She uses the move on Myriad Transformations Ancestor too, whose speed and strength fall, though he has no lifespan to lose. The Ancestor’s repeated attempts turn up transformations that slow the effect, but holding them keeps him from changing form freely and badly hampers his battle strength. Two casts leave Wan Zi Hong extremely pale and panting heavily, a risk she would not have taken had Wei Feng lived. The Ancestor, anxious, shouts at Fang Yuan to move. ^{ch. 1875}

Fang Yuan makes his move, but not for the Ancestor. He attacks the myriad li adaptation formation instead. With no Gu Immortals controlling it, the formation is a still target and is torn apart without self-destructing. Fang Yuan loots the Immortal Gu inside, then targets the dream realm, which turns into a Pure Dream Reality Seeker Physique body. He seizes mutation Immortal Gu and Dancer Hong Yun’s corpse, one in each hand, and enters the warship. The Ancestor is bloodshot with fury at the theft of his rank eight mutation Immortal Gu. He leaves Myriad Statue Palace to fight Heavenly Court’s three immortals and goes to kill Fang Yuan. ^{ch. 1875}

Fang Yuan flies off, and the Ancestor chases him, bombarding the warship wildly. The Ancestor’s speed is slower, but Heavenly Court controls overturning heaven and earth to obstruct Fang Yuan’s path while helping the Ancestor. The three immortals slow their attacks, happy to watch the two fight to death. One says Fang Yuan, blinded by profit, has made the Ancestor his mortal enemy. Yet another feels this is not Fang Yuan’s style, and they suspect he looted the Immortal Gu because he already has a way out, so they grow more vigilant. ^{ch. 1875}
