Chapter 768

Fang Yuan activates Fixed Immortal Travel to Hu Immortal blessed land; at the same moment, a Northern Plains battlefield fight has already been decided. More than ten Gu Immortals surround the two combatants. Qin Bai Sheng, bent to avoid kneeling, has lost his battle intent to shock and dejection, spitting blood turned an eerie green that solidifies into jade pearls. A huge area around them has turned to jade, and jade will has spread through his own body, though his defensive killer move kept his organs and intestines safe. ^{ch. 768}

Having watched him lose to one attack, the remaining Central Continent Gu Immortals eye Feng Jiu Ge with new wariness. Feng Jiu Ge, admiring, confirms green jade song is his own creation. He notes that resisting it for fifteen minutes is very rare, and decides to question Qin Bai Sheng rather than kill him or search his soul. The Central Continent Gu Immortals object, since releasing a Northern Plains expert risks future danger, and his wealth tempts them besides. Feng Jiu Ge waves them off and calls on Old Oracle to use the killer move gentleman’s bamboo. Silenced, they reckon six songs mean six killer moves and that even a rank eight might not surpass him. ^{ch. 768}

Old Oracle is a young-looking wisdom path Gu Immortal from Ancient Soul Sect. He grows a colorless crystal bamboo from his palm. Gentleman’s bamboo detects lies, taking rank six Bamboo Gentleman for its core, and it works on rank seven Gu Immortals though not rank eight. ^{ch. 768}

Understanding the threat, Qin Bai Sheng admits defeat. He agrees to answer, but only three questions. Some Central Continent Gu Immortals are unhappy, but Feng Jiu Ge accepts the limit. ^{ch. 768}

Asked who sold Delight in Water and Mountain and Worldly Wave Trace, Qin Bai Sheng answers bitterly that the seller is Sha Huang, an immortal zombie he met recently and befriended after his rank six luck inspection Gu showed unusual luck. Sha Huang has a mysterious origin and seems to have a backer. He sold thirteen Gu Immortal captives at the auction, including the rank seven Gu Immortal, Rushing Thunder Hand Wu Hao, and has a close relationship with Fairy Li Shan. That is all Qin Bai Sheng knows. Once he speaks, his skin bursts and blood pours; he stabilizes only after a dozen breaths, the alliance’s backlash for leaking information. Feng Jiu Ge checks Old Oracle’s bamboo, its color unchanged, confirming the truth. ^{ch. 768}

His second question concerns the collapse of Eighty-Eight True Yang Building. An hour later, Qin Bai Sheng flies off, vanishing as a small black dot. One Gu Immortal objects, given his wealth. Feng Jiu Ge explains that Qin Bai Sheng has a method to detonate his soul, an aura terrifying enough that forcing him would probably drag a few of them down and ruin their plan to gather information. ^{ch. 768}

Feng Jiu Ge offers the bamboo as proof he is not lying. They quiet down. Old Oracle retracts his killer move, and Feng Jiu Ge splits the group: one stays to protect him while he deduces the culprit, the other follows toward Northern Plains Zombie Alliance to find Sha Huang, ready to capture him on sight. ^{ch. 768}

Fifteen minutes later, five Gu Immortals reach the battlefield. Fairy Jiang Yu’s investigative Gu shows Qin Bai Sheng escaped rather than being captured, exposing fled auras far larger for Feng Jiu Ge than the rest. Xue Song Zi doubts that five of them can trap Qin Bai Sheng, who escaped more than ten ambushers, but a black robed Gu Immortal among them claims to have a method. The group sets out in pursuit. ^{ch. 768}

At Lang Ya blessed land, the land spirit gloats. He looks over the pile Fang Yuan brought, calling him crafty and scheming. Pleased by their quality and quantity, he still feels bitter over their four to six split, since those captives were his own work. Fang Yuan offers a trade: his own refiners are inferior, so he wants the land spirit’s skilled hairy men to refine his mortal Gu, paid in immortal materials. The land spirit hesitates, then agrees, willing to take this business too. ^{ch. 768}
