“No news?”
Inside the Phoenix Perch Restaurant, Jiang Yuncheng stood with his hands behind his back, and behind him was a table full of delicacies and wine.
A person on the side cupped his hands and replied. “Young Master, I lost contact with the person you sent out not long ago, he was likely dealt with.”
“If I had such a beautiful family member who was followed by a stranger like this, I would have taken action as well.”
Jiang Yuncheng took two steps forward and stood at the fence overlooking the night view of Fanshu City. “I’m only worried that those two people are also here for that thing.”
“Then…”
The attendant hesitated for a moment and asked, “The identities of these two people are unknown, and they are so bold. Do you want me to test them tomorrow?”
Jiang Yuncheng waved his hand. He didn’t turn his head back. “There’s no need for that. They aren’t the only ones here to snatch the item. Don’t ruin the fairy’s impression of me.”
“Yes.”
“How’s Qin Wentian doing?”
“He’s drowning his sorrows just like you.”
Jiang Yuncheng glared at him. “Bullshit, am I drowning my sorrows?”
“I made a mistake.” The attendant hurriedly apologized.
“Forget it, let me know if there’s any news. You can leave now.”
Jiang Yuncheng pressed his palm on the wooden railing, his gaze turning profound. “Fairy, please don’t go against me.”
…
Late at night, Xu Manor.
Fang Yuan sat cross-legged, a pill in his mouth.
As the medicinal effect slowly dissipated, purple Qi swirled around him, enveloping the Sunlight Gu in front of him.
[Ding, your Sunlight Gu has obtained the Power of Yin and Yang, entering a super cultivation state!]
[Your Sunlight Gu’s attributes are compatible with Yang energy, the cultivation efficiency has greatly increased!]
It’s here!
Fang Yuan focused all his attention, wholeheartedly controlling the Power of Yin and Yang to infuse into the Sunlight Gu’s body.
However, he did not have much Power of Yin and Yang left, so he could only use spirit essence to assist.
At once, the liquid spirit essence in his acupoints rapidly evaporated, turning into rays of blue light that entered the Sunlight Gu’s body.
After an unknown period of time, countless fine cracks appeared on the Sunlight Gu’s body.
Fiery red light appeared in the cracks, and there was something like molten lava flowing inside.
Fang Yuan folded his arms, sending out his spirit essence at full strength.
Boom!
With a muffled sound, after absorbing a large amount of spirit essence energy, the Sunlight Gu’s body suddenly expanded several times.
The system notification finally sounded in Fang Yuan’s mind.
[Ding, your Sunlight Gu has successfully broken through to rank three. Obtained ability – Yang Flame Incarnation!]
[Yang Flame Incarnation]: Condenses a large amount of fire element to envelop itself. After transforming, it will obtain an extremely high resistance to the same element and water element. Any attack that is weaker than the user’s spirit essence concentration will be completely absorbed, and reflected to the opponent.
“Oh my god…”
Fang Yuan’s eyes were wide open.
Was this the power of the Three Talented Gu?
It was too terrifying!
If he were to engage in actual combat, with Fang Yuan’s liquid spirit essence concentration, even an ordinary sixth layer Enlightenment Realm cultivator would not be able to break through the Sunlight Gu’s fire barrier!
He did not expect this little fellow to have such a monstrous ability. Fang Yuan was so excited that his blood could not help but boil.
But it was a pity that this ability was exclusive to the Sunlight Gu, and Fang Yuan could not use it for his body.
He even imagined himself standing in the air and turning into the god of fire.
Tsk!
That was so cool!
But the Sunlight Gu did bring some benefits.
As it broke through, an even stronger heat energy burst out from its body, and along with the rebound force from the breakthrough, it spread from Fang Yuan’s acupoints to his limbs and bones.
In an instant, the Yang Qi that Fang Yuan had lost after clearing away the cold poison for Wan Qian was instantly recovered.
The meridians that had been damaged by the cold poison were also recovering bit by bit.
Not only that, as a large amount of fire element gathered, the system sent another notification.
[Ding, your Bloodthirsty Gu has received a large amount of fire element support. Flame Rod Technique has successfully evolved into Heat Control!]
[Heat Control]: The power of fire element is no longer limited to rod techniques.
“Finally, I have mastered two types of elemental energy.”
Fang Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
Heat Control and Frost Control had similar uses. They were both skills that he could use too.
The only difference was that Fang Yuan now had the Sunlight Gu, and since fire element was constantly growing in his body, the Heat Control skill could be used without any burden, and he was not afraid that the fire element would be squandered.
But Frost Control was different.
Now, the cold poison in his body had been completely dispelled.
The ice element that had been stored in his body had already been used up in several battles.
Now, even getting some ice cubes to drink with the Gu wine was a little difficult, unless he asked Wan Qian to dual cultivate with him a few more times…
But this was too troublesome.
Moreover, if he encountered a situation where he did not have enough ice element, he could not call for a time-out and let himself dual cultivate with Wan Qian before fighting again, right?
This was too ridiculous.
“Looks like I have to think of a way to find the Starlight Gu’s whereabouts.”
Fang Yuan thought to himself.
Frost Control was one of the abilities he often used, so he naturally had to think more about how to solve this problem.
But the Three Talented Gu were very rare, and only one person in the Gu Immortal Sect had the whole set in the past few hundred years. It was already extremely lucky for him to encounter two of them.
“I will ask Master when I return to the sect in a few days.”
Fang Yuan shook his head. This kind of thing could only be found by chance, so he could only rely on his master to use the Fortune-telling Gu to obtain some information.
However, if he wanted to further increase his strength, he did not necessarily need the Starlight Gu.
He could also collect a series of Gu worms like other Gu masters, allowing their abilities to complement each other, like the Bloodthirsty Gu’s flame rod technique evolving because of the Sunlight Gu’s strength.
If he collected more fire type Gu worms, his ability in this area would increase by several times.
This was the advantage of his system. He could nurture Gu worms without limit, and he did not need to consider the large amount of spirit essence he needed to nurture them.
Moreover, this was a virtuous cycle.
The more Gu worms he had in his acupoints, the more spirit essence he would receive.
The other Gu masters were carefully calculating if their spirit essence was enough to use a set of Gu worms at full power.
Compared to them, he was already very comfortable.
“When I return to the sect and exchange the Devourer Mother Gu for contribution points, I can use it to exchange for a batch of fire type Gu worms,” Fang Yuan thought to himself.
Since the Bloodthirsty Gu had already been weakened at this point, he could only use the Sunlight Gu as the main Gu to cultivate in the future.
Fang Yuan started to write down the Gu worms he needed with a pen and paper, and he would return to the GU spirit hall to exchange for them.
Unknowingly, the whole night had passed.
When the sky was just beginning to brighten, Li Tongzhou sneaked into the Xu Manor and knocked on Fang Yuan’s door.
“Senior, should we start preparing now?”
