Chapter 1655: Collecting ck Oil


    Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios


    Vague water ripples were moving before the eyes, in extreme tranquility, a group of Gu Masters dived


    into the sea.


    The light above them became dimmer, the surrounding seawater was emitting greater pressure on


    them.


    Someone started to use water shell Gu.


    The water shell Gu that Fang Yuan invented was simply amazing!


    Almost the instant it was activated, the fishing vige’s Gu Masters felt their pressure reducing, their


    bodies felt rxed, as if they had discarded a ton of dead weight.


    The Gu Masters all showed joyful expressions, even though they had already tested water shell Gu in


    their vige earlier.


    But at this time, someone suddenly made an alert signal.


    Arge number of weaving sea spiders were approaching them.


    These sea spiders moved very quickly underwater, they would split up when they encountered prey,


    shooting out their spider webs that would entangle the prey before they attacked.


    Seeing this group of sea spiders, the fishing vige’s Gu Masters turned pale, even the rank three


    vige head was full of fear, he could not calm down.


    The sea spider group was huge, and they were most skilled at fighting with numbers, to defeat a


    stronger enemy with collective effort. Many sea creatures would often die to them due to a battle of


    attrition.


    Even rank three Gu Masters were not their match in a drawn out fight.


    The deep sea had too much danger. On the surface, the sea was calm, but under the sea,


    undercurrents surged, dangers lurked everywhere.


    “No need to worry.” Fang Yuan transmitted before waving his hand at the crucial moment.


    At the next moment, the Gu Masters of the fishing vige were so shocked their eyes almost popped


    out!


    A huge whirlpool formed instantly, it crashed into the sea spiders, it was like a tornado that swept away


    all of the sea spiders in it.


    “Quickly leave, I cannot sustain it for long.” Fang Yuan said purposely.


    The fishing vige’s Gu Masters realized at once and quickly dived deeper.


    After they got to a safe distance, the Gu Masters turned back to look, the whirlpool had started to


    dissipate. The sea spiders werepletely disoriented, they had low intelligence and moved ording


    to instinct, seeing that the prey vanished, they gathered again and moved away.


    The Gu Masters rxed at longst, their gazes towards Fang Yuan was filled with admiration and


    reverence.


    The Gu Masters who fought against Fang Yuan earlier finally saw how powerful this Master Chu was!


    And most importantly, his method was very wise.


    If they fought in the sea, the blood would attract more problems.


    Trapping but not killing, that was the work of an expert.


    The group continued to move with Fang Yuan as their guardian, they met with no danger.


    Sea spiders were just one of the lurking dangers, oil collecting Gu Masters faced hundreds of types of


    aquatic beasts, sometimes, they would even get swept into special currents, helplessly moving along


    with them.


    In the following journey, some problems still urred, but they were not disasters like the sea spiders.


    Diving and stopping continuously, after some hard work, they finally reached the Earth Trench.


    They did not need to dive into the Earth Trench, because there was a lot of ck oil here already.


    There had been no Gu Immortals who came to excavate them.


    The Earth Trench was filled with ck oil, at the same time, some gushes of ck oil leaked outside.


    These ck oil streams were like octopuses with long tentacles, they also seemed like seaweed,


    messy and scattered.


    The fishing vige’s Gu Masters quickly used their Gu worms to get close to the leaking ck oil.


    They started to collect the oil, moving around like worker bees.


    Fang Yuan did not act, he watched from afar.


    These Gu worms specially used to collect ck oil were the core and vital Gu of these Gu Masters,


    Fang Yuan did not ask them about this in their previous interactions because it was taboo, but with his


    ability, he could understand everything with just a single look.


    His refinement path quasi-supreme grandmaster attainment level was not a joke!


    “The number one resource around this unnamed ind is ck oil. When I use this ck oil as


    material to refine Gu worms for them, their efficiency will increase.”


    While he was thinking of this, suddenly, a huge group of seashell sharks approached them.


    These sharks opened their bloodthirsty mouths, full of shells that were used as sharp teeth.


    The seashell sharks were very special.


    They began life without teeth, instead, when they grew up, they would choose seashells in the sea and


    put them in their mouths. As time passed, these seashells would take root and grow, the more years


    that pass, the whiter and tougher they would be.


    The seashell sharks would use the shells as teeth to tear prey that were stronger than seashell sharks


    apart.


    This special rtionship made infant seashell sharks very weak, but when they reach adulthood, they


    would be overlords of the sharks.


    This group of sharks were attacking, be it individual or group strength, they far surpassed the sea


    spiders. But the fishing vige Gu Masters were not afraid.


    They moved around the ck oil terrain with ease and agility. From time to time, they would spray the


    ck oil that they collected as barriers to shield themselves.


    Seashell sharks were huge and could not move easily in this ck oil area, if the oil stuck to them, they


    would be slower and even struggle to move as the oil got thicker.


    The fishing vige Gu Masters used the territory to quickly feed these seashell sharks to the ck oil


    as food.


    These seashell sharks struggled until they had no strength left, they were slowly devoured by the ck


    oil.


    Normally speaking, the ck oil would take a long time topletely corrode these seashell sharks, all


    of their flesh, bone and blood would turn into new ck oil.


    ck oil was an immortal material that contained food path dao marks, it was not safe, the Earth


    Trench filled with ck oil was a dangerous area.


    Fang Yuan saw this as he sighed in his heart.


    He remembered that in the five hundred years of his previous life, he had once seen how the ck oil


    devoured its prey for the first time. From that day on, he had nightmares for several nights, of the ck


    oil sticking onto him and slowly devouring him without any hope of salvation.


    Normally speaking, oil collecting Gu Masters would work in groups, they were afraid that the ck oil


    would stick to them and kill them in the process of collection.


    But the oil collecting Gu Masters in the fishing vige would not form groups, it was too easy for


    disputes to arise, and encountering dangerous situations might cause everyone to perish.


    Right now, everyone grouped together, but it was a special situation.


    “I advise that you try to drag out the seashell sharks that are trapped, these are all usable Gu


    materials.” Fang Yuan transmitted.


    “Master Chu, these seashell sharks are polluted by the ck oil.” The old vige head hesitated.


    “Don’t worry, I have a way to remove the ck oil. Trust me, these seashell sharks are very useful for


    you.” Fang Yuan smiled.


    He had designed a Gu recipe that used these seashell sharks as the main material.


    Without water shell Gu, these Gu Masters would not believe him, but after Fang Yuan disyed such


    strength, the old vige head stopped hesitating, he ordered: “You all heard him, hurry up and do it. But


    be careful, don’t let the ck oil stick to you, it is too troublesome otherwise.”


    Not just troublesome, the price would be huge!


    ck oil was an immortal material, once it got stuck, the food path dao marks would be carved onto the


    Gu Master’s body. Just the problem of conflicting dao marks would be fatal, and because they had


    mortal bodies, they could not endure the corrosion of the ck oil.


    1“Don’t worry, I can remove the ck oil on you even if it sticks to you.” Fang Yuan spoke.


    His words made the Gu Masters overjoyed, but even with his assurance, the Gu Masters still acted


    carefully, they were afraid of touching this beloved and ursed ck oil.


    The seashell sharks were all dragged out.


    Most were not dead, they still had some vitality.


    Falling into the ck oil would not cause suffocation immediately.


    At this time, a small surprise urred.


    “Look at what I found? A trapped mermaid.” A Gu Master dragged out a mermaid corpse.

    Her body was covered in ck oil, her appearance could not be seen, but from her build, it seemed to


    be a girl.


    “She has some life force left…” The Gu Master who saved the mermaid said with surprise.


    “Let me.” Fang Yuan acted.


    The Gu Masters were very shocked, because they saw that the ck oil moved like an obedient child,


    getting away from the mermaid and gathering in front of Fang Yuan as a big ck ball.


    “Master Chu is truly unfathomable!”


    “Such methods, how much ck oil can he get each time?”


    Gu Masters were in admiration and envy, their respect towards Fang Yuan increased again.


    “Don’t worry, with me around, you will all be safe.” Fang Yuan’s action was just to reassure these


    people, but at the next moment, the smile on his face froze.


    His sight was stuck on the mermaid’s face, he went into a daze.


    “Mo Er?!”
