Chapter 74: Absolute Ice Battlefield
After resting and reorganizing for a while in Hu Immortal Blessed Land, Fang Yuan activated Fixed Immortal Travel to arrive at central continent again.
Fang Yuan quickly connected his luck to Hong Yi and left using Fixed Immortal Travel.
Next he connected his luck to Ye Fan and returned to Hu Immortal blessed land.
Seven days later, he used a stargate, and completed the transaction with Lang Ya land spirit, gaining forty immortal essence stones.
Fang Yuan was benefitting hugely from this transaction, he just had to remember the recipe and give it to Lang Ya land spirit and gain immortal essence stones.
Now, Fang Yuan had over a hundred immortal essence stones.
He got a piece of good news from Little Hu Immortal land spirit when he returned to Hu Immortal blessed land: A Gu Immortal seemed to have found the dead body of a six headed snake and its parts and organs were being separately sold in treasure yellow heaven.
Fang Yuan immediately connected to treasure yellow heaven and bought the whole skeleton for three immortal essence stones.
Fang Yuan used the skeleton and converted it into its blood, feeding his calamity beckoning Gu.
Time passed and the day of Hei Lou Lan's tribulation approached closer and closer.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng returned to Hu Immortal Blessed Land through a stargate.
"Underworld jellyfish... deepsea lightning eels... you actually managed to gather these ingredients." Fang Yuan inspected the goods as he looked at Tai Bai Yun Sheng feigning surprise.
"When I displayed landscape as before Immortal Gu, I was greatly welcomed by many Gu Immortals. They took the initiative to interact with me, at the moment, there are already Gu Immortals who have invited me to join Hai Shi blessed land. However, this matter can only be approved after half of the elders in Hai Shi blessed land agree." Tai Bai Yun Sheng said.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng continued: "I bought sufficient underworld jellyfish in Hai Shi blessed land. After getting your letter, I left Hai Shi blessed land, searching for a secluded island to use stargate Gu. But by coincidence, I met an immortal zombie who called himself Shark Demon, he was a member of Zombie Alliance, and was bringing large amounts of goods to Hai Shi blessed land to sell."
"He had many deepsea lightning eels with him, if these eels were sold in Hai Shi blessed land, there would certainly be many buyers. I approached him and asked if I could purchase them. Shark Demon was unwilling at first and had a terrible attitude. But after knowing I was Tai Bai Yun Sheng, he changed his mind.
He was willing to sell the deepsea lightning eels to me, but I had to help him repair a secret blessed land. I agreed to his request, and obtained the deepsea lightning eels without spending any immortal essence stones."
"This Shark Demon actually trusted you this much?" Fang Yuan asked.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng laughed, replying nonchalantly: "Oh, he had a rule path Immortal Gu called Death Sentence Awaits. I cooperated with him and accepted the use of Death Sentence Awaits, obtaining his trust."
"Death Sentence Awaits is a rank seven Immortal Gu that belongs to the rule path, it can set a person's time of death. Once the time was up, even a Gu Immortal would die." Fang Yuan reminded.
"That is right, this Shark Demon is a rank seven immortal zombie." Tai Bai Yun Sheng chuckled.
"Old Bai, you are handing him your weakness. Actually, even without food to feed the Immortal Gu, it would have been fine for the moment." Fang Yuan looked at Tai Bai Yun Sheng, sighing.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng laughed, patting Fang Yuan's leg, his height was obviously not enough to reach Fang Yuan's shoulders.
He purposely explained: "Do you think I did it for you? No. That secret blessed land is not owned by Shark Demon, it is Yu Lu blessed land. Fairy Yu Lu was the second disciple of Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable. It is a pity that Yu Lu blessed land's entrance had already been destroyed. Shark Demon needs my Landscape as Before to restore the entrance.
I used this opportunity to gain his trust and also a chance to explore Yu Lu blessed land."
Fang Yuan looked at Tai Bai Yun Sheng deeply in the eye, not continuing this conversation.
After that he fed worldly wave trace Gu using the jellyfish and eels he got from Tai Bai Yun Sheng.
Checking his assets, Fang Yuan still had a hundred immortal essence stones, as well as sixty-one green grape immortal essence beads.
He converted thirty of his immortal essence stones into green grape immortal essence.
As time continued to pass, the day when Hei Lou Lan went through the immortal ascension tribulation had finally arrived.
Fang Yuan and Tai Bai Yun Sheng used a stargate to reach northern plains as per the agreement.
Looking left and right, it was a field of snow with absolute silence. In the snowy field, Hei Lou Lan and Fairy Li Shan had long since arrived.
"This place is..." Fang Yuan was very familiar with this place.
It was the absolute ice battlefield at the north-most part of northern plains created by Reckless Savage Demon Venerable.
Fang Yuan was very familiar with this place, he had used this place many times to undergo tribulation after getting the sovereign immortal fetus Gu.
Fang Yuan looked at Hei Lou Lan, smiling: "You purposely chose this place to undergo the tribulation, are you afraid that the heavenly tribulation and earthly calamity would be too fierce? But without sufficient heaven and earth qi, the foundation of your immortal aperture would be affected, as well as your future potential as a Gu Immortal."
Fairy Li Shan opened her palm, as a Gu worm appeared: "If heaven and earth qi are insufficient, we will use these small family qi Gu."
Tai Bai Yun Sheng heard this and his eyes shone: "This Gu worm is great! Heavenly tribulations and earthly calamities form when heaven and earth qi are too thick and accumulate. With this Gu worm, can we indirectly control the heaven and earth qi, to reduce the force of the heavenly tribulation and earthly calamity?"
"The immortal ascension of one of the ten extreme physiques has a terrifying heavenly tribulation and earthly calamity. Oh, if I did not obtain this small family qi Gu, I would have no confidence towards Little Lan ascending to Gu Immortal realm." Fairy Li Shan sighed, staring at Hei Lou Lan with much concern and worry.
Next, her gaze flickered and she turned to Fang Yuan: "Fang Yuan, if Hei Lou Lan's ascension succeeds, I will give you the recipe of small family qi Gu."
Tai Bai Yun Sheng's gaze shone with joy, while Fang Yuan nodded emotionlessly.
"Other than the heavenly tribulation and earthly calamity, what I am worried about now is that old scoundrel Hei Cheng. When I entered northern plains last time, he discovered me immediately, evidently, he has placed a tracking method on me, but I could not find it at all."
After pausing for a while, Hei Lou Lan continued: "We have to make plans for the worst possible outcome, Hei Cheng's tracking method is definitely not simple. If he comes and attacks at the crucial moment, there is little possibility of me dealing with him.
But if I can endure past the taking in of qi, my body would be washed by the three qi, it would be reinforced by the dao marks and cleansed completely, achieving a qualitative transformation, even if Hei Cheng used an Immortal Gu tracking method, it would be wiped clean. As long as we make it to the second step, we can leave."
"I understand, you can start." Fang Yuan said.
Hei Lou Lan nodded, closing her eyes and shattering her aperture.
Huge amounts of Heaven and Earth qi started to draw.
Hei Lou Lan started to sprinkle the small family qi Gu.
They started to absorb heaven and earth qi and store them. They greatly reduced the speed of the accumulation of heaven and earth qi.
After some time the heaven and earth qi became thicker, and started creating the heavenly tribulation and earthly calamity.
After much difficulty they survived the earthly calamity and tribulation and Fang Yuan once again gained true meaning of strength path, transformation path and flying path.
After gaining the true meaning Fang Yuan's attainment in transformation path and strength path didn't increase much, but he became a flying path Quasi Great Grandmaster.
Right at this moment, two bright rainbows, one black and one white, pierced the air and descended.
"We finally found you!"
"You were indeed in the icy plain."
As the rainbows faded, two people, Hei Cheng and Xue Song Zi, appeared.
"So many strength path phantoms, what is going on?" Xue Song Zi's pupils shrunk, before they shined in a bright, heated light: "Oh? This is... it seems the rumors were true, undergoing tribulation in the icy plain will possibly attract Reckless Savage Demon Venerable's true meaning!"
Hei Cheng's eyes were eerily looking at the battlefield, next his gaze focused on the three colored qi cocoon.
After such a long time, Hei Lou Lan had not finished absorbing the three qi yet, her human qi was simply too huge in quantity!
"Hehehe, Hei Lou Lan, you guys have nowhere to run, why don't you surrender." Hei Cheng laughed heartily, he opened his right hand and revealed an Immortal Gu.
Fairy Li Shan's expression changed, she showed herself and stood in front of Hei Lou Lan, she spoke coldly: "Instant Pause?"
Hei Cheng saw Fairy Li Shan and he focused his gaze, he spoke with deep meaning: "To think that the mastermind behind all this was Fairy Li Shan. Why are you sowing discord between us father and daughter? Oh I see, as expected, which Gu Immortal would not be interested in the yin-yang life extension method in my possession?"
Fairy Li Shan's expression was solemn, her voice became louder as it filled the skies: "Hei Cheng, you are destined to fail today. Don't think of causing any harm to Little Lan, because the person stopping you will be me!"
Saying so, Fairy Li Shan stopped hiding it, she burst out the grand aura of a rank seven Gu Immortal.
Battlefield killer move — Pear Orchard!
"To think that third leader's cultivation level had secretly reached rank seven. Hei Cheng, be careful, third leader cultivates earth and wood path, she had set up this battlefield earlier, I am also a member of Snowy Mountain blessed land, I cannot battle Fairy Li Shan due to the alliance rules." Xue Song Zi reminded.
Hei Cheng's expression was calm, his gaze shifted to Fang Yuan, Tai Bai Yun Sheng and Fairy Li Shan for a moment, before turning back to Hei Lou Lan.
"One immortal zombie, one rank six Gu Immortal, one rank seven Gu Immortal..." Hei Cheng muttered, he snorted coldly, saying to Xue Song Zi: "Go deal with that immortal zombie and the rank six Gu Immortal, after I kill Fairy Li Shan, we will take down Hei Lou Lan."
"Okay!" Seeing that the toughest foe was going to be dealt with by Hei Cheng, Xue Song Zi agreed.
He flew down, straight towards the earthly calamity.
Xue Song Zi's speed was very fast, he was right above Fang Yuan in a moment's time.
"I'll let you taste my power!" He growled, he pushed with his hands and used his killer moves.
Drifting Snow! Ice Mountain Awl! Snow Sparrow Crisis!
Fang Yuan laughed coldly, he waved his hand and the giant army moved!
"Eh?!" Xue Song Zi's expression changed, only after fighting did he realize the truly fearsome might of myriad self!
Battlefield killer move — Snow Domain!
"Towering pine tree, icy hair dragon stream!" Xue Song Zi growled, using two defensive killer moves at once.
However, when the myriad self army charged over, pine trees collapsed, and ice dragons shattered, the snow domain lasted for a moment before breaking apart.
"It's actually an immortal killer move! Who in the world is this immortal zombie?" Xue Song Zi's expression was pale, his eyes showed panic as he retreated quickly, even faster than when he came, he was in a pathetic state!
