    Crack.


    Fang Yuan crushed a gutstone in his hand, immediately, mud flowed out, staining his palm.


    Fang Yuan’s gaze was solemn, he picked another rock on the mountain and held it in his hand.


    His hand was stained with yellow mud, with a slow speed, it was slowly disintegrating the rock, turning


    the hard rock into more mud.


    A momentter, Fang Yuan could distinctly feel the rock shrinking.


    After ten minutes, the rockpletely turned into mud, vanishing.


    The yellow mud flowed down the space between Fang Yuan’s finger, flowing onto Dang Hun mountain


    and continuing to cause damage to the mountain.


    Fang Yuan was quiet for a moment before speaking, asking: “How severe is the situation?”


    Little Hu Immortal wiped her tears as she sobbed, answering: “Most of Dang Hun mountain had been


    affected by the mud. Six out of ten of the gutstones below the mountain waist is turning into mud.


    Master, what do we do? Dang Hun mountain is going to perish… sob sob , it is my fault, I did not notice


    it earlier.”


    Fang Yuan patted little Hu Immortal’s head, consoling: “This is not your fault, you do not need to me


    yourself. The culprit is that swamp crab, as expected of a deste beast, as expected of an earthly


    cmity!”


    Land spirits’ abilities are all different, they all differed and were greatly dependent on the Gu Immortals


    and their blessednds.


    He sighed, continuing: “I was still rejoicing earlier than the deste beast did not have an Immortal Gu.


    It turns out this swamp crab used an expenditure type Immortal Gu and hid the Gu’s power inside this


    mud. Nothing happens if ites into contact with flesh, but all mountain rocks would be turned into


    mud upon touching it.”


    During the cmity earlier, the swamp crab spewed outrge volumes of mud, and the crab army


    appeared from within the mud.


    Fang Yuan killed an immense number of crabs, but little did he know, the real trump card was the mud


    itself.


    Fang Yuan guessed that this is the effect of the rank six gruel mud Gu.


    Gruel mud Gu was a naturally formed Gu, verymonly seen as rank one and two, and still rather


    popr as rank three and four. It was often used by Gu Masters to build cities. As rank five Gu were


    rare, many rank five Gu Masters would choose to temporarily use this gruel mud Gu when they did not


    have a good rank five Gu. When this rises to rank six, there would only be one in the world, and this Gu


    was a one time expenditure type.


    Gruel mud Gu can only be used on mud, evidently, the swamp that swamp crab used to live in was


    created from the effects of gruel mud Gu. The swamp crab ate and defecated mud in the swamp every


    day, thus it was able to bring the ability of the gruel mud Gu into Hu Immortal blessednd.


    After the swamp crab died, although the battlefield was cleaned up,rge amounts of mud had already


    seeped into the mountain, moving deep underground.


    Gruel mud Immortal Gu’s ability was so hidden, and there was no Immortal Gu aura in the yellow mud,


    if Fang Yuan had not ordered the rockmen to crush the gutstones, he might not have found out at all.


    But even if he found out early, he had no ability to stop this during the cmity.


    Fang Yuan’s expression was still as water.


    Dang Hun mountain was being corroded by an Immortal Gu, slowly turning into yellow mud, this was a


    great nightmare!


    Thest valuable thing in this blessednd was this mountain. He wanted to rely on this mountain to


    nurture and sell rockmen. In the future, his own soul strengthening will also depend on this mountain.


    He could not sit around and watch the situation worsen.


    At once, Fang Yuan ordered little Hu Immortal to clear out as much yellow mud as possible.


    This way, the danger was greatly slowed.


    But Dang Hun mountain’s interior was also corroded, this method could not cure the root of the


    problem. This was the power of the gruel mud Immortal Gu, to remove it, he needed to use an Immortal


    Gu’s power!


    “I took such a huge risk to obtain this sacrednd for soul strengthening. Even after I be an


    Immortal, this mountain is still extremely valuable. I cannot let it be destroyed. Heaven does not want


    this sacrednd to end up in the hands of men, thus it sent such a cmity, but I will defy heaven.


    Hehe,peting with men,peting with heaven, this is the fun of life, that’s all there is.”


    With Fang Yuan’s knowledge, he was not helpless and without a solution.


    He thought of more than ten ways to solve this, after eliminating half of which were not feasible, and


    removing those which were too hard, he was left with three solutions.


    The first solution was the earth path rank six turn rock Gu. This Gu was in western desert, held in the


    hands of rank six Gu Immortal Sun Cu. Sun Cu is a righteous path Gu Master, he used this Gu to turn


    sand into rocks, in order for people to build structures in the desert, he was very popr and received


    gratitude from the people. He was kind hearted but not resolute, he loved his family and doted on his


    granddaughter the most, if Fang Yuan could hold her hostage, he would definitelyply.


    The second solution was another earth path rank six Immortal Gu, called ‘Rebuilding Mount


    Dongshan’. This Gu had already been refined, it was hidden in eastern sea’s Hai Shi blessednd,


    Fang Yuan could enter the blessednd and use an Immortal Gu to exchange for this Gu.


    The third was the time path rank six Immortal Gu ‘A Mountain Like Before’. This Gu had not existed yet,


    it was not naturally formed. Its owner is Tai Bai Yun Sheng, he was still a rank five Gu Master in


    northern ins at the moment.


    “In southern border on San Cha mountain, I refined fixed immortal travel Gu in public, it is obvious


    without a doubt that southern border is already in a hugemotion over it. A mortal that possesses


    an Immortal Gu, I’m afraid all those Gu Immortals in southern border are all notified now, and are


    looking for me all over the continent.”


    Until Fang Yuan bes a Gu Immortal, he was not going to step into southern border again.


    “Although the five regions are isted, the super n Yi n has a rtionship with a mysterious


    organisation in eastern sea. It will take at least two to three years until the news of me refining an


    Immortal Gu reaches central continent, but that might not be the case for eastern sea.”


    Fang Yuan eliminated eastern sea.


    “As for western desert, it’s the ce where caravans flourish the most. Cities after cities, surviving


    using the oasis in the desert. If I can sell the rockmen there, I would earn a ton of profits. Unfortunately,


    a flourishing caravan trade means that information also travels fast. As a southern border Gu Master, I


    am an easy target. Once I reach there, I’d probably be marked the moment I enter a city.”


    In Fang Yuan’s previous life, he roamed around all five regions during the five hundred years, finally


    choosing central continent to settle down, and be a Gu Immortal. Thus, he had a clear


    understanding of western desert.


    “Compared to western desert, northern ins is a huge grasnd, all sorts of tribes graze their


    livestock, migrate, battle, and procreate there. There is high mobility and some small-mid tribes have


    chaotic management, I can easily blend in with them.”


    Western desert was different from northern ins.


    In western desert, humans relied on oasis to live, thus people are always gathered together. As long as


    the oasis is intact, nobody would make life difficult for themselves and go to another living area by


    making a dangerous and arduous desert journey.


    But in northern ins, tribes have to move around often, finding rich and fertilend to relocate to. The


    weather there is ever-changing, strong weather conditions can destroy homes in a night, tribes have no


    choice but to move. Because of this, the high mobility among tribes also cause conflicts to ur often,


    and battles often takes ce. Thus, the number of Gu Masters in northern ins is the highest, and


    they are also the ones most skilled at fighting among the five regions.


    If Fang Yuan chooses western desert, abducting a hostage and threatening a Gu Immortal would


    cause a huge andsting impact on the stability of western desert.


    But if he chose northern ins, even if he killed the rank five Gu Master Tai Bai Yun Sheng, it would


    only be a mildmotion. In a few months, people will forget him.


    Fang Yuan thought it through, and decided that the chaotic northern ins is most suitable for his


    actions.


    Sun Cu in western desert is already a Gu Immortal, while Tai Bai Yun Sheng in northern ins is still a


    rank five peak stage.


    After deciding on his destination, Fang Yuan started to think hard,piling all the important


    information he had in his memories, to organise his ns for northern ins.


    ns do not keep up with changes, ever since rebirth, his ns had been changing continuously.


    The first time was on Qing Mao mountain when he became A rank aptitude, it was a huge


    breakthrough and thus caused a shift. San Cha mountain was the second change, Fang Yuan soared


    to the sky in a single step, making all his ns unusable.


    Although there were still benefits in the great battle of Yi Tian mountain, he could no longer stay in


    southern border.


    As for central continent, that would be even worse.


    He was a mortal, the ten righteous sects, the whole of Immortal Crane Sect, and all the demonic Gu


    Immortals on Tian Ti mountain were looking at him.


    As long as he did not reach Gu Immortal realm, he would have to stay inside the blessednd, unable


    toe out.


    He had also nned to do that, growing his strength inside Hu Immortal blessednd.


    The blessednd had ample resources, Fang Yuan wanted to be like Feng Jiu Ge, cultivating in secret


    until he reached Gu Immortal realm, and get rid of the biggest problem called Spring Autumn Cicada.


    Although Fang Yuan was a risk-taker, and liked to make profitable gambles, often struggling at death’s


    door, it did not mean he rejected a peaceful and stable life.


    Refusing to stay in a safe environment, and wanting to go around and create trouble for himself, taking


    risks and getting himself into danger, that is a fool.


    Loneliness, solidarity, boredom, those were not obstacles to Fang Yuan’s cultivation.


    If he did not have the nature to endure these, how could he walk on the road to sess?


    But the world never goes your way, problems often find you when you least want it.


    Fang Yuan wanted to cultivate in secret, developing the blessednd as he lived in peace. Although


    Immortal Crane Sect was trouble, Fang Yuan kept the initiative the entire time, although the other party


    is strong, they cannot do anything to him at the moment.


    The future prospects were great, his life was going smoothly, everything had changed for the better.


    But at this moment, a problem happened to Dang Hun mountain!


    To Hu Immortal blessednd, Dang Hun mountain’s importance is insurmountable. If anything happens


    to this mountain, Fang Yuan’s transactions would crumble, and his cultivation ns would turn into a


    mere dream.


    Thus, Fang Yuan had to change his ns, leaving the blessednd and entering northern ins.

    “Thankfully, I nned in advance, and made a few backup ns, otherwise, I would be extremely


    caught off-guard now.”


    For the next few months, Fang Yuan spent all his efforts on Gu refinement.


    He used the rank four golden and silver cup Gu,bining with rank four another perspective Gu and


    rank four moving form Gu to refine the rank five moving perspective cup Gu.


    Next, he refined dusty Gu, bright pearl Gu, dark toss Gu and earth treasury flower king Gu.


    “Land spirit, during the days I’m gone, follow my instructions.” Before leaving, Fang Yuan instructed.


    Little Hu Immortal’s eyes were red as she said reluctantly: “Master, I am waiting for you here, you have


    to return quickly.”


    Saying so, she used the green grape immortal essence and injected it into fixed immortal travel Gu.


    With the burst of a jade-green light, Fang Yuan vanished on the spot.
