Moon Raiment is the rank two Gu produced by fusing Jade Skin Gu and Moonlight Gu.
Gu Yue Bo teaches Fang Zheng to fuse Jade Skin Gu and Moonlight Gu into rank two Moon Raiment. That pair already satisfies one of the Gu Yue clan’s rank five recipes, whose end is Moonlight Treasure King Gu, but Bo tells Fang Zheng that naming a rank five Gu is still too early and starts him on this rank two step. The first attempt fails when Fang Zheng loses the fused consciousness. Bo warns that too many failures can destroy both source Gu. After that failure the Moonlight Gu shows cracks and the Jade Skin Gu looks weakened. ch. 98
Appearance
When Fang Zheng activates it, a vague light blue fog gathers around his body. In the mist it forms a long floating ribbon that loops around his waist and coils around his limbs, with the middle section drifting above his head. ch. 104
Defense
It is a rank two Gu with defensive properties. Its defense sits slightly lower than White Jade Gu, but it can assist others in defending and has greater use in small group fights. With it active, Fang Yuan judges that bare fists cannot break Fang Zheng’s defense, and that Moonlight Gu also cannot break through unless the attacker holds Moonglow Gu. ch. 104
By the time Fang Zheng confronts Fang Yuan on the stairs, he has already refined Moon Raiment and treats it as the defense Fang Yuan cannot break with fists. Fang Yuan confirms the rank two label on sight. ch. 104
Moonlight routes
Fang Yuan’s later survey of Moonlight Gu routes records that Fang Zheng used Moonlight Gu and Jade Skin Gu to create Moon Raiment, a rare line whose upper limit is rank five Moonlight Treasure King Gu. ch. 106
Fighting strength
Fang Zheng’s rank two Moon Raiment already gives him the ability to fight Fang Yuan. ch. 107
Impact force
White Jade Gu is not the Raiment Gu. White Jade Gu cannot lessen the force of an impact; Fang Yuan’s back still hurts after a fall of three to four meters. ch. 150
Group barrier
On the Qing Mao Mountain battlefield Fang Zheng shouts the Gu’s name and activates it. A misty light that is blue like the moon gushes from his body, extending and surrounding the Gu Masters around him. ch. 190
Crane assault
Inside an ice chunk, Fang Zheng’s whole body is covered with a layer of moonlight from Moon Raiment Gu. He had used it against Ironbeak flying cranes until one crane broke through the barrier and pecked his forehead, after which he lost consciousness. ch. 199
