<h4>Chapter 602: Frost Jade Peacock</h4>
<strong>Trantor:</strong> ChibiGeneral <strong>Editor:</strong> ChibiGeneral
The scene before one’s eyes was that of a grand and elegant white jade hall.
Four huge pirs were holding up the roof, on the ground, light casted shadows on a person.
Be it the walls, pirs, or roof, they were pure and white as snow, they were all created using white jade stones.
At the center of the hall, there was an elevated area with twenty-three steps of stairs.
On the elevated area, there was a green copper divine bird statue. The divine bird was looking up, and spreading its wings, but there were countless ck chains, each with the size of an ancient tree, coiling around the divine bird’s body, tangling around its long neck, its slim legs, and even piercing through its feathers and lodging itself into its body.
The divine bird’s eyes were sharp as daggers, it was frowning and had its mouth wide open, almost as if screaming out loud. Its expression was very moving, it looked so real with delicate details, and there was an indomitable spirit of resistance oozing from it, this spirit could leave a firm impression after a single gaze.
Fang Yuan appeared on the stairs, looking at the tall and huge green copper divine bird statue covering his vision, his dark pupils seemed to have mes burning within.
“This, this, this!” The sudden turn of events shocked Mo Yao to the point of stuttering.
She gulped as she pointed her finger, shouting: “This is actually the Frost Jade Peacock, Imperial Court blessednd’snd spirit!!”
“Ah, what’s there to be surprised about?” Fang Yuan’s lips curled into a smile, he said: “Imperial Court blessednd originally had and spirit, otherwise it would not have recognised Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and made him its master. Thend spirit is formed by thebination of an obsession and the blessednd’s heavenly power, to get rid of thend spirit, you will have to deal with the entire blessednd. If thend spirit dies, the blessednd will be destroyed. If the blessednd is destroyed, thend spirit will die too. Currently Imperial Court blessednd is still in good shape, it means thend spirit is still alive.”
His words made Mo Yao shout in anger: “You bastard, such obvious reasoning, how could I not know this!”
Mo Yao had done all she could to research Eighty-Eight True Yang Building for her lover Bo Qing, in an attempt to get the fortune rivalling heaven Gu, and help Bo Qing advance to rank nine.
Eventually, although she seeded in entering the true inheritance secluded domain, because of her insufficient power she could not obtain fortune rivalling heaven Gu. Instead she had to settle for something else, using her inheritance information and her own foundation as a refinement grandmaster to refine the cmity beckoning Gu.
Because of this, she understood the value of thend spirit of Imperial Court blessednd extremely clearly!
Back then, when Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was not rank nine, he had won in thepetition for Imperial Court blessednd’s inheritance, and became the owner of Imperial Court blessednd.
When he became rank nine and was invincible in the world, he had the superior grotto-heaven, Longevity Heaven, and thus Imperial Court blessednd became one of Giant Sun Immortal Venerable’s multiple residences within the world.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable created Eighty-Eight True Yang Building and set it up within Imperial Court blessednd.
This formed a rtionship — if one was targeting Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, they would need to first enter Imperial Court blessednd. Imperial Court blessednd thus became a protective shell for Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
After Giant Sun Immortal Venerable’s arrangement, this shell had been exerting great use, in that Gu Immortals could not enter.
But in this setup, there was a huge w, any Gu Immortal could see it clearly!
That was the existence of thend spirit of Imperial Court blessednd!
This w did not exist when Giant Sun Immortal Venerable was still alive. Because Giant Sun was the master of thend spirit, thend spirit would obey and do whatever he told it to do.
But after Giant Sun Immortal Venerable died, Imperial Court blessednd became ownerless. As long as one could meet thend spirit’s expectations, anyone could be Imperial Court blessednd’s new owner.
And Eighty-Eight True Yang Building was situated inside Imperial Court blessednd, thus whoever controlled Imperial Court blessednd would have Eighty-Eight True Yang Building in their grasp.
As long as one was a Gu Immortal, they would understand this from just a small amount of thinking.
In Mo Yao’s lifetime, when researching Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, she had spent a huge amount of time and effort in this field.
But eventually, she made no progress.
All the hard work and effort she put into this resulted in nothing.
What sort of person was Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, how could he be unaware of this loophole? He dealt with this perfectly, sealing thend spirit deep within, and in Mo Yao’s eventual exploration, she could not even find a single feather of thend spirit.
“To think that thend spirit was hidden inside the true inheritance secluded domain! Only when the true inheritances fly at a certain speed would this loophole appear, and allow for the possibility of opening this gateway!” Mo Yao’s heart was shaken, at this moment, she understood what had happened.
The more she thought about it, the more she viewed Fang Yuan with a new and higher level of respect.
“Thisd, I underestimated him! What sort of background does he have, he actually knew this method of entry?” Mo Yao was shocked and curious.
Fang Yuan’s performance was very shocking, it greatly exceeded her expectations.
What she did not know was, this was inside the video from central continent’s Gu Immortals in Fang Yuan’s previous life.
In fact, the deep research of central continent’s Gu Immortals was actually built upon the foundation of Mo Yao’s findings.
Mo Yao was an impressive refinement grandmaster, for her lover, she researched the Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, and charged in alone. After she died, the previous research material that she left behind was in the hands of Spirit Affinity House.
For the ten thousand years after that, generations after generations of geniuses within Spirit Affinity House continued their research on it. At the same time, Eighty-Eight True Yang Building had been corroded by the power of time, showing more and more loopholes over the years, bing easier to exploit.
But Spirit Affinity House knew that to take down this juicy meat called Eighty-Eight True Yang Building, it was not something a super force could do alone. Thus, Spirit Affinity House secretly worked with several other central continent sects and nned this for thousands of years.
Spirit Affinity House took the lead as they controlled the most important research materials from beginning to end. Later, good preparation would be the key to sess, when central continent’s Gu Immortals attacked, the group was led by Spirit Affinity House’s fairy of that generation, ck Moon.
As he walked up the stairs, Fang Yuan arrived at the foot of the green copper divine bird.
This tall statue was Imperial Court blessednd’snd spirit, Frost Jade Peacock!
Except that it was sealed tightly by Giant Sun Immortal Venerable, and could not move. Since hundreds of thousands of years ago, throughout the ages, it had been standing here without any movement.
As they got closer, Mo Yao had a discovery: “Heh,d, your n will be hard to execute. The green paste on the Frost Jade Peacock’s body is created by the rank seven Immortal Gu Earth Prison. The ck chains that are coiling around its body are made from the rank seven Immortal Gu Earth Net... Eh!”
While saying this, Mo Yao thought of something and her words stopped.
At once, in Fang Yuan’s mind, she was staring with her eyes wide open, like she had seen a ghost.
Because she had suddenly remembered: Not long ago, Fang Yuan summoned two Immortal Gu, one of them was Gruel Mud!
Earth prison Gu, earth Gu, although they were rank seven Immortal Gu and were higher than Gruel Mud by one rank.
But they were one time expenditure Gu, they vanished after one use.
The two rank seven Immortal Gu worked together to seal thend spirit, but after hundreds of thousands of years of corrosion from time, this strength had weakened greatly.
And Gruel Mud was a direct counter to this strength!
“Hahaha, it seems you have already thought about it, you are not too stupid.” Fang Yuanughed heartily as he took out the gruel mud Immortal Gu from his pocket.
Although this Gu was rank six, because it was an expenditure type Gu, it wasparatively easier to use, there was no need to inject immortal essence into it, he just needed to squeeze it.
Fang Yuan squeezed lightly and it shattered.
The Gu worm burst and oozed out a brown-green light that was like liquid.
The light followed Fang Yuan’s will and flew up, fusing into the divine bird statue.
Throughout the process, Mo Yao watched in a daze, unable to say a word.
After the light fused into the statue, a slight tremor ured, but this tremor was simply too light, it was almost like an illusion.
But soon, this tremor becamerger.
The entire divine bird statue starting shaking. Cracks were forming on the green paste covering the divine bird statue, next, the chains starting colliding with one another, making a loud and sharp noise.
“Su... sess?! Don’t tell me, after hundreds of thousands of years of wear and tear, the powers of the two Immortal Gu were used up?” Mo Yao muttered to herself, she had aplex expression, there were disbelief, surprise, suspicion, and denial...
But afterwards, the tremors became smaller.
The divine bird statue became silent, and the chains stopped shing, the entire white jade hall became quiet once again.
Mo Yao was deeply disappointed, she sighed: “Failed in the end! There was the difference of a rank, plus this was the setup of an Immortal Venerable.”
“Hehehe.” But at this point, Fang Yuanughed lightly: “Mo Yao, look at the divine bird’s head?”
Mo Yao’s will looked over and was shocked: “The green paste on thend spirit’s head is slowly melting! That’s right, this is the gruel mud Immortal Gu’s real effect, I was too caught up with themotion and got carried away, I lost my bearings and did not think of this. Hehe,ughable, howughable.”
Mo Yao suddenly shook her head and sighed, immediately afterwards her expression had vanishedpletely, restoring the demeanour of a legendary Gu Immortal, a refinement grandmaster.
Actually, she could not help but briefly lose her cool.
In her life, she had paid too huge of a price for Imperial Court blessednd, for Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
Right now, earth prison Gu and earth Gu, the powers of these two Immortal Gu, although corroded mostly by the power of time, they still had a portion remaining.
Although gruel mud Immortal Gu was effective against them, it was only rank six, it was still very difficult to get rid of the remaining power.
But don’t forget about the existence of thend spirit!
The tremors earlier were due to thend spirit.
It was the one which exerted strength, causing the two Immortal Gu to divert the majority of their power to suppress it, allowing the gruel mud Immortal Gu’s power to sneak in.
As the green paste melted, it turned into gruel mud on the white jade floor, the green-ck mud was a great contrast to the white tiles on the ground.
Drop by drop, they fell on the ground.
The Frost Jade Peacock’s head was released, but after getting to its neck, the speed of melting greatly reduced.
Evidently, earth prison and earth Gu’s remaining power reacted and started to resist Gruel Mud, causing the efficiency to reduce greatly.
“Heh, just like in the video in my previous life, it is exactly the same.” Fang Yuanughed as he looked at thend spirit, Frost Jade Peacock: “Oh Imperial Courtnd spirit, look down at your feet, I was the one who released you. How does it feel to breathe again after hundreds of thousands of years? As long as you recognise me as your master, I will help you to regain freedom!”
Frost Jade Peacock’s angry expression was still fixed on its face, hearing Fang Yuan’s words, itughed arrogantly: “I am one with the blessednd, all the things that happened in the blessednd for thest hundreds of thousands of years are clear in my heart. If you want to be my new owner, you will need to fulfill one condition.”
Hundreds of thousands of years ago, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable’s fulfilled thisnd spirit’s request and became Imperial Court blessednd’s owner.
Today, Fang Yuan was facing this request as well.
At this point, the video in his previous life had no more value. Fang Yuanughed as his eyes shone, asking —
“What condition?”
