Chapter 19 – Rank six vital Gu, The Spring Autumn Cicada!
During the process of refining, the Gu counterattacked!
At this time, the Liquor worm that had inherited the Flower Wine Monk’s extremely strong will invaded
his aperture, brazenly counterattacking at Fang Yuan.
This strong willpower descended from above, surging down towards the bottom of the aperture where
the green copper primeval sea was. The waves in the sea tumbled, setting off bursts of high tide.
Under Fang Yuan’s will,rge amounts of primeval essence rose upwards to the sky and gathered
together, forming a towering monster wave, brazenly epting the iing Liquor worm’s will.
Just as both sides were about to collide viciously in the middle of the aperture, a faint image of a Gu
worm emerged in a nk area between the two energies.
This was a cicada. The cicada’s body was notrge; if the Moonlight Gu was described as a blue
crystal shaped like a curved moon, then this cicada would be a delicate craftwork that was made from
palm wood and tree leaves by a master craftsman.
The Gu sported a brownish yellow head and abdomen. Its surface had the texture of a tree’s growth
rings, as if it had witnessed countless years. On its back were two very wide and translucent wings, like
two tree leaves ovepping. The wings had simr structure; this structure was like a typical-vein
leaf. The center had a coarse stem, and from this stem sprouted out awork vein of leaf lines on
both sides.
The Spring Autumn Cicada!
It had been startled. It was just like a giant beast, usually hiding in its cave in a deep sleep. But
suddenly it was awakened, furthermore learning that its territory had been vited.
Who dares toe into my turf and act wildly!
As if its dignity was offended, the Spring Autumn Cicada was angry and let out a whiff of aura; the aura
was weak yet powerful. It was like the surging Milky Way, rolling forth with vast and mighty waves; it
would sweep across mountains for ten thousands of miles, or submerge a broad desert!
To bepared to this aura, the Liquor worm’s will was like the case of an ant meeting an elephant!
The aura swept around and expanded, just like a raised invisible tsunami. The invading will of the
Liquor worm did not even have the ability to withstand it; it was immediately swallowed whole by this
aura.
Fang Yuan felt depressed. The green copper primeval essence that he had thrust forward with his
might collided with this aura like it was a wave crashing onto a great mountain. In a moment the
condensed primeval essence disintegrated and dispersed into rain, scattering down to the primeval
sea.
The waves on the primeval sea rose one after another; it was like a rainstorm had just swept across,
increasing its turbulence.
But after a few seconds, the Spring Autumn Cicada’s aura spread down, pressing onto the primeval
sea.
Boom!
Fang Yuan felt like he heard a buzz. In an instant, the rolling waves on the sea calmed down. The
Spring Autumn Cicada’s aura firmly repressed the entire primeval sea, just like an invisible mountain
pressing down. The surface of the sea was calm like a mirror, not a single wave rolling about. It was
like an originally crumpled piece of paper; a boundless giant hand covering over it suddenly, ttening
it.
This was easily an iparable power!
Fang Yuan felt a pressure weighing like an enormous invisible mountain pressing down on his heart.
Hepared it to Sun Wukong being pressed down by the Five Elements Mountain; Fang Yuan could
not even mobilize a single pint of primeval essence.
However although he was shocked, he was not afraid. In fact his heart felt great joy.
“I didn’t think the Spring Autumn Cicada would actually follow me and be reborn together! So it’s
actually not a one-time use Gu worm, but one that can be used again repeatedly.”
The Spring Autumn Cicada was a Rank six grade, and it was the first Rank six Gu in Fang Yuan’s
previous life, as well as hisst. Just to make it, Fang Yuan had used all means and resources, wasting
an incredible amount of strength, using thirty years of fermenting to finally seed.
But not long after he seeded, when the Spring Autumn Cicada was still fresh from the oven,
warriors of the Righteous faction felt Fang Yuan’s threat and gathered together to attack and kill him.
After being reborn, Fang Yuan did not find the Spring Autumn Cicada, so he thought it had died. But in
reality it had fallen into a deep sleep, resting inside Fang Yuan’s body.
To travel back five hundred years in an instant was a huge blow to its vitality. It was too weak, so weak
that even Fang Yuan as its master could not feel it. Right now even though the Spring Autumn Cicada
had appeared, its situation was still bad.
After being reborn it had always been resting in a deep sleep. To appear right now was because it had
felt the danger that the aperture was facing; it could be said that the Liquor worm’s will had awakened
it.
It was weak, very weak, extremely weak.
In Fang Yuan’s memories, the original Spring Autumn Cicada was full of vitality. Its body was like a
precious floorboard, giving out a warm and glossy varnish. Its two wings were verdant green, like two
soft tree leaves that had just freshly sprouted.
But right now, there was a strong and deathly chill emanating from the body of the cicada. There was
no shine or gloss from its body, making it feel rough and dim like dead wood. Its wings were not the
colour of soft and green leaves; they were fully yellow, just like the withering leaves of autumn. The tips
of its wings were slightly rolled up, a little iplete, just like the corner of fallen leaves.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan felt both distressed and lucky. He was distressed because the Spring Autumn
Cicada suffered such a heavy blow; it was barely a step away from death, just a foot away from the
edge of a cliff.
The fortunate thing was, thank heavens the Spring Autumn Cicada was weak to this point, or else he
would be in great trouble!
One must know, between a Gu Master and a Gu, both mustplement each other, the best would be
both having the same rank.
A Rank one Gu Master should use a Rank one Gu – this was the most appropriate. If the Gu’s grade
was lower than the Gu Master, when the Gu Master uses it, it would be the equivalent of a strong man
carrying a small stick, the strength output would be small. If the Gu’s grade was higher than the Gu
Master, when the Gu Master uses it, it would be the example of a small child carrying a heavy axe,
unable to wield it properly.
The Spring Autumn Cicada was a Rank six Gu, and Fang Yuan was just a Rank one initial stage Gu
Master. To use an image as example, the Spring Autumn Cicada would be a mountain, and Fang Yuan
would be a squirrel. If the squirrel wanted to use the mountain to beat its enemy, the squirrel would just
be squashed t by the mountain at the first second.
If the Spring Autumn Cicada was at its peak state, Fang Yuan’s weak Rank one aperture could not
even tolerate it; the majestic aura of the cicada would just make the aperture burst to death.
Fortunately it was at its weakest state, so Fang Yuan’s aperture could amodate it right now.
“I gave up the Moonlight Gu, going through all the lengths to find the Liquor worm just to refine it into
my vitalGu. But in reality I already had a vital Gu from the start, the Spring Autumn Cicada is my vital
Gu!” Fang Yuan’s heart was filled with emotion as he felt the close connection between him and the
Spring Autumn Cicada.

The vital Gu is the first Gu that a Gu Master refines. It is terribly important, and would affect the future
development of a Gu Master by arge extent.
If a vital Gu is well picked, the Gu Master’s development will be smoother. When the vital Gu is of
a poor grade, to a Gu Master it would just drag down his cultivation and let peers surpass him. The
more important thing is that it would affect the matter of life and death in a battle.
Fang Yuan was clear on this point, so he was not satisfied after choosing the Gu Yue vige’s
signature Moonlight Gu. He just had to go all the way to find the Liquor worm.
In his memory to a Rank one Gu Master, the Liquor worm was already considered a high quality pick.
The Moonlight Gu was just a choice that was slightly above average.
But life is fascinating, because no one will ever know what is waiting for him or her at the next moment.
Fang Yuan had refined the Spring Autumn Cicada in his previous life. After his rebirth the Spring
Autumn Cicada fell into a deep sleep, but the connection between them still existed. In fact Fang Yuan
found that, as if going through the refinement of the River of Time, his connection with the Spring
Autumn Cicada had grown even closer and mysterious than his previous life. It was just because the
Spring Autumn Cicada was too weak, so Fang Yuan was not aware of it.
Therefore in the real sense, the Spring Autumn Cicada is the first Gu that he had refined. The only
thing was that the Spring Autumn Cicada was not refined in his current life, but the result of hard work
in his previous life of 500 years.
The Spring Autumn Cicada was Fang Yuan’s vital Gu.
A Rank one Gu Master, having a Rank six vital Gu!
If this sort of thing was said out loud, it is expected that no one would believe such a thing! This has
already broken the limits of human cognition!
But yet, that is exactly what happened. The truth is beyond doubt.
“The Liquor worm as a vital Gu is already one of the best choices, but when youpare it to the
Spring Autumn Cicada, it is just like scum on the ground! My vital Gu in this life is actually the Spring
Autumn Cicada, ha ha ha….”
