Familiar Face

Without the original three core Immortal Gu of vaguely familiar face, Fang Yuan uses the light of wisdom to modify the move around eat strength Immortal Gu and reaches preliminary success: a weaker version that can change regional aura when he is not fighting at full exertion. ^{ch. 836} Later, after he already holds Attitude Gu, he bargains Lang Ya down to five rank eight immortal materials and obtains the original familiar face. Its sole core is Attitude Gu; besides that core it has over twenty supplementary Gu, including two Immortal Gu such as change form Immortal Gu. Fang Yuan removes those two supplementary Immortal Gu, adds about a thousand mortal Gu, and produces a modified familiar face that shows about sixty percent of the original’s capability, activates slowly over about an hour, and can deceive rank seven Gu Immortals, with rank eight needing case-by-case judgment. The move’s strength is that Attitude Gu makes the disguise act on others’ minds, so a stranger can still feel like a long-lost friend or carry a warm, familiar impression. ^{ch. 976} Missing change form Immortal Gu, this version can currently only hold a human shape and cannot pass as a beast or other species, a scope the original move was not bound by. ^{ch. 993} At Yi Tian Mountain, using this Attitude-Gu-cored familiar face in place of the vaguely familiar face he wore for the same infiltration in his previous life, Fang Yuan judges himself even less likely to be exposed by the Southern Border Gu Immortals there. ^{ch. 998} Confronting Ying Wu Xie’s soul in his own former immortal zombie body, just after taking his new body, Fang Yuan judges that familiar face would have deceived him, where ghostly concealment instead became the flaw: as a split soul, Ying Wu Xie could feel no connection to the man claiming to be his main body. ^{ch. 1021} Fang Yuan wears Qi He’s face and takes injuries on purpose to close the hundred steps the immortal killer move dark assassination needs against Qi Zai, and afterwards turns into Qi Zai’s own appearance, meaning to assassinate Qi He the same way, only to find her already dead. ^{ch. 1043} With change form Immortal Gu in it, familiar face is close to the original version and easy to use, transforming instantly instead of needing the very long activation the replacement mortal Gu forced. ^{ch. 1096} Confronting variant human Gu Immortals near the northern icy plain, he activates familiar face and transforms into a hairy man with no flaws, then reverts to his own appearance, arguing that he could have deceived them this way but chose not to. ^{ch. 1142} Weighing whether to kill the transformation path Immortal Hua Die, Fang Yuan judges that familiar face lets him change identity freely against ordinary suspicion but cannot defend him from wisdom path deductions, so killing her would risk an exposure his disguise could not cover. ^{ch. 1154} At white crane sea area, disguised by familiar face as Qin Bai He, Fang Yuan is let into Bai He Palace because only her will remains inside it, fooled long enough for him to take the Immortal Gu House over. ^{ch. 1487}
