    “Even Wang Han lost and died in the battle stage.”


    “Thisd is too ruthless, he does not know how to show mercy!”


    “The all-out effort Gu is strong indeed…”


    Outside the stage, spectators discussed.


    Fang Yuan kicked and destroyed the water prison, charging over and killing the blue shirt man from the


    impact, causing the battle to end.


    The blue shirt man’s chest waspletely caved in, as his white ribs were exposed, soon, blood dyed


    the battle stage’s field red.


    The hosting Gu Master walked onto the stage and dered Fang Yuan’s victory.


    The blue shirt man’s corpse was left lying there, no one was dealing it with at the moment.


    From the hosting Gu Master, Fang Yuan took back the vine information Gu, and looked into the Gu, he


    had seventeen victories now, with zero losses.


    After all, this was the fifth inner city battle stage, it was mostly made up of rank two Gu Masters, Fang


    Yuan had the cultivation advantage plus the all-out effort Gu, after his first few matches, in the


    subsequent battles, he only took a few moves to win.


    These victories earned him arge number of primeval stones.


    Winning in the battle stage, you not only get your opponent’s Gu worms, you can also receive primeval


    stones as a reward from the battle stage.


    The more the spectators, the more primeval stones you earn.


    “Li Ran, this is fifty thousand primeval stones, I’m passing this to you in public in case you try to defame


    me in the future.” Under everyone’s watchful gaze, Fang Yuan took out a bag of primeval stones.


    Li Ran walked out from the crowd, receiving the primeval stones with a smiling face as numerous


    envious people watched.


    “Fang Zheng, you truly kept your word. First, you passed me eighty thousand, and now fifty thousand,


    a total of a hundred and thirty thousand primeval stones already.” He cupped his fists, saying that as he


    left.


    The crowd went wild.


    “This Fang Zheng, first he gave eighty thousand, next fifty thousand, where did he get all those


    stones?” Some did not understand.


    “It is not strange, during these two weeks, he got consecutive victories in the battle stage, the fame of


    the all-out effort Gu attracted many spectators. Every match earns him thousands of primeval stones.


    After a few battles, he would have several tens of thousands.” Someone replied in a sour tone.


    “Not just that, thisd is ruthless, killing his opponent almost every match. Very few people can survive


    a match with him, thus he can get around two to three Gu worms per battle. After selling them, that is


    another sum of primeval stones.” Someone snorted, revealing Fang Yuan’s brutal acts.


    “This Fang Zheng is too much, he is advancing by stepping on our corpses.” Someone was furious.


    Someone sighed: “We are all demonic Gu Masters, why is there a need to kill each other? Sigh…”


    Someone eximed: “But to speak the truth, this Fang Zheng has his merits. Actually passing Li Ran


    two hundred thousand primeval stones as promised. To speak the truth, if I was in that position…”


    Once he said so, the crowd became silent.


    But someone quickly retorted: “He hasn’t finished paying the two hundred thousand primeval stones.


    We can talk again after he pays the full sum.”


    Looking at fang Yuan leaving, someoneughed coldly among the crowd: “His good days areing to


    an end. In five days’ time, it would be the date where Li Hao forcefully challenges him.”


    “Li Hao? Didn’t he ascend to fourth inner city already?”


    “Just a little bit to go, hmph, I can’t wait to watch this battle!”


    “Hehe, thisd is too arrogant, let Li Hao teach him a lesson.”


    Swish swish swish…


    In the aperture, primeval essence ebbed and flowed, waves appearing on surface of the light silver


    primeval sea.


    Steel tendon Gu swam in the sea, absorbing primeval essence as it emitted a ck light.


    It was shaped like an earthworm, but had a ck body and the surface was not as soft as an


    earthworm, instead, there was an oily and shiny exoskeleton.


    It emitted an eerie light, prating the aperture and shining on every part of Fang Yuan’s body.


    Under the influence of the eerie light, Fang Yuan’s muscles and tendons were covered in an oily dark


    color, causing them to be more firm and strong.


    After half a day, Fang Yuan stopped using the steel tendon Gu.


    He had sweated a lot, his breathing was rough, and his head felt slightly dizzy.


    The feeling of using the steel tendon Gu was notfortable, it gave a sort of numb, painful and itchy


    feeling, invading his nerves, it put the endurance of the Gu Master to test.


    An ordinary Gu Master, when using the steel tendon Gu, it would take half a year toplete.


    But in Fang Yuan’s ns, he condensed the time to a month.


    This means, the amount of time Fang Yuan uses on the steel tendon Gu a day is six times of an


    ordinary person, it was a strict test of his willpower and endurance.


    “I have to treasure every minute and second, to cultivate! Increasing my strength as fast as possible!”


    “I need primeval stones, the battle stage is the best way to earn. But if I lose a match, I would lose the


    all-out effort Gu. I might be able to use the purple thorn token to stop them, but I would have to pay a


    huge price in other aspects!”


    “I cannot lose at all! I am like a battle horse charging rapidly now, as my battle strength rises. But if I


    lose one match, it would be game over. My rapid growth would experience a huge setback.”


    “Shang n city is merely a starting point, how can I fall here? In this life, I have to be a Gu


    Immortal, I have to breakthrough to rank seven, eight, and nine. I want to ascend to the peak, and see


    the view that I did not manage to in my previous life. Legend says that beyond rank nine, it is the


    supreme realm of immortality! It is easy to have a long life, but to be an immortal, no one has ever


    managed to do it.”


    “The highest point for a lifeform is to reach immortality, their greatest desire is immortality. What is the


    point of wealth, it is merely a hoarding addiction. What men and women, it is just primal instincts. What


    reputation, it is just bullshit people spew about you, carrying the stench of depravity.”


    “Wealth, beauty, reputation, status, people who pursue all these are short-sighted. Back on Earth, there


    was no choice, as everyone was going to die eventually, thus they can only pursue these or life would


    be meaningless. But in this world, where primeval essence is rich, why would we not pursue


    immortality given the possibility?”


    “For the sake of immortality, wealth, beauty, reputation, status, I can make use of all of them, and I can


    also discard them as easily! For immortality, fear cannot stop me, I will charge forward relentlessly! For


    immortality,ziness will not stop me, I will never ck even for a moment! For immortality, pain cannot


    stop me, gods and demons cannot stop me, even heaven and earth cannot stop me!”


    As he affirmed his belief, Fang Yuan’s ck eerie eyes seemed to burn with a scarlet red demonic


    ze.


    After his rest was over, he activated the steel tendon Gu again without hesitation.


    The dark eerie light shone on his body, even prating his skin.


    In the silent secret room, his expression was extremely cold, like a statue made of steel, giving off the


    feeling of an evesting toughness.


    What numbness, pain or itching, they were merely tiny ripples in his heart.


    Others might not be able to stand it, but that does not mean Fang Yuan cannot!


    If stubbornness is demonic, then Fang Yuan is a demon among demons.


    No matter how many times he dies, it would not influence his resolve! No matter what setbacks he


    faces, they would only be firewood that allows the demonic ambitions in his heart to burn even more


    brightly.


    …


    Bam!


    The loud sound reverberated in the battle stage.


    Rocks and soil flew, as a st of air swept the battlefield, although his opponent escaped the fatal


    blow, he was still pushed away by the air current and retreated over ten steps.


    The dust cloud dispersed, and the culprit behind this attack revealed its true form.


    This was a giant toad!


    It wasrger than a mammoth, having two eyes asrge as stone mills. Its body was grey and had a


    huge stomach and strong limbs. There was green moss on its skin, and even some tiny rocks on the


    surface.


    What gathered the most attention, was its back.


    Its back was extremely swollen, like it was carrying a small hill!


    This hill was the real deal,pletely made of mountain rocks, about ten and a half feet high. It had


    manyyers and folds, like it was shaved by swords and axes. Grass and weed grew on the mountain


    rocks, and there were even two or three trees.


    This was the rank three Gu, named mountain back toad. It was heavy and cumbersome, its signature


    move was to leap up, and crash down like a mountain.


    Earlier, it had disyed this move, and caused an earthquake to strike the battle stage, many


    spectators lost their bnce and many things toppled.


    “This attack is too strong, really too strong!”


    “What a grand sight, even a spectator would feel his heart thumping.”


    “The mountain back toad is like a castle, attack and defense all in one. The only weakness is ack of


    speed, but its owner perfectly covered up this weakness!”


    Everyone discussed as they looked at this mountain back toad, but quickly shifted their gaze to a Gu


    Master.


    This Gu Master wore a flowery robe, was thin, and had a delicate appearance.


    Although he was a man, he had makeup and powder on his face, as he stood at one end of the battle


    stage, ying with his long fingernails.


    His name is Li Hao, rank three cultivation with a richbat experience. He was especially proficient in


    dealing with strength path Gu Masters.


    “Just you alone, you want topete with me? Hehe, admit defeat, don’t waste my time.” Li Hao


    stared at his fingernails, not even giving his opponent a nce.


    “Scoundrel, looking down on me! Take this!” His opponent was also someonemonly seen in the


    battle stage, being humiliated in public like this, his face contorted with anger as he gritted his teeth and


    pounced on Li Hao.


    Li Hao looked at him silently. As the opponent rapidly approached, Li Haoughed coldly: “You have


    not learnt your lesson, was it not enough? Then, I’ll let you experience it again.”


    Position swap Gu!


    Li Hao’s gaze gave off a strange light as he looked at his mountain back toad.


    In a breath’s time, he vanished on the spot, appearing at the mountain back toad’s location.


    At the same time, the mountain back toad appeared at his former location.


    Using the position swap Gu, he swapped ces with the mountain back Gu.


    His opponent was rushing towards Li Hao, but in a split second, the mountain back toad appeared


    before him.


    Bam!


    Mountain back toad jumped, and like a flying mountain, it sent the opponent flying.


    The battle ended just as expected!


    “Mountain back toad with position swap Gu, such a battle strategy is unbeatable.”


    “That’s right, the position swap Gu can not only change the mountain back toad’s location, it can also


    swap with the opponent. Thispletely eliminates the mountain back toad’s weakness of low


    movement speed.”


    “After this battle, Li Hao has twenty-nine victories. Just one more, and he can rise to fourth inner


    city.”


    “Hurry and leave, no one can stop him here anymore.”


    “Who is his final opponent? Eh, it is that super lucky guy who got the legendary Gu.”
