Obscured Heavenly Secret

Several days after Fang Yuan arrived in the immemorial heavens and stabilized heaven form, he starts to prepare the heaven path killer move obscured heavenly secret. ^{ch. 2228}

While stabilizing heaven form, Fang Yuan activates obscured heavenly secret repeatedly to practice it and gain more insight. The version he uses is the one Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable had. Paradise Earth did not have heavenly secret Immortal Gu, so he used heavenly web Gu as the core with a large amount of heaven path immortal materials. After those materials are used, Fang Yuan’s body becomes covered in a new layer of heaven path dao marks, resembling a fishing net. Whenever anyone makes deductions or tries to investigate him, the fishing net’s lines contract and twist rapidly, distorting everything from the original state. The true effect is not to conceal himself from all deductions, but to mislead them into a wrong result. Once the fishing net’s heaven path dao marks are depleted, the killer move loses all effect. The more heaven path immortal materials he consumes, the more heaven path dao marks construct the fishing net, and the killer move becomes stronger and longer lasting. He senses Giant Sun Immortal Venerable’s investigation, purposely dispels obscured heavenly secret to test it, and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable moves out to attack him. ^{ch. 2229}

Fang Yuan uses obscured heavenly secret. This time the move contains a few more heaven path Immortal Gu that he added. It is stronger and thicker, and he can control its range to a certain extent. He uses sixty percent of his heaven path immortal materials. At almost the same time, refinement to advance Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus starts in the sovereign immortal aperture. ^{ch. 2231}

If Fang Yuan fought, his weakness would be exposed, and obscured heavenly secret could not hide anything in that case. He secretly activates it. This time, the heaven form immortal material he chooses to expend is the core of heaven form, the immemorial white heavenly spirit. Heaven form vanishes in a few breaths of time. A vast number of heaven path dao marks that pile into a dense mountain shroud him immediately. ^{ch. 2233}

Heavenly Essence Treasure Imperial Lotus at rank nine had already increased the burden on obscured heavenly secret, and its expenditure was rising rapidly. ^{ch. 2247}

Because of the second rank nine Immortal Gu, the fishing net-like heaven path dao marks left on him were expended at almost double the speed of before. Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable had expended a lot of immortal essence and needed what remained to refine natural dao marks, so they would not inspect as frequently, which reduced the pressure on the move. Fang Yuan was aware that obscured heavenly secret was already reaching its limits at this stage. If he wanted to refine a third rank nine Immortal Gu, the move might help him conceal it during the early stage, but it would not keep concealing it at the mid-late stage, and the effect would dissipate completely. If he did not refine it, obscured heavenly secret could still hold on for some time. ^{ch. 2253}

If Fang Yuan wanted to defend Flickering Light grotto-heaven, he would need to fight Spectral Soul Demon Venerable. If the battle became too intense and obscured heavenly secret failed, he would be exposed, causing Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable to attack him at the same time. ^{ch. 2271}

As long as Fang Yuan refines rank nine heavenly secret Gu, the power of obscured heavenly secret will rise sharply, and the two venerables will continue to be deceived. ^{ch. 2275}
