The Live Iron Gu was a Rank two Gu, shaped like a coal briquette, fist-sized and pitch black, with countless small holes on its surface.
Fang Yuan injected his white silver primeval essence into it, and the Live Iron Gu floated up, spinning on its own before spewing out a black fog-like iron aura from the holes.
The Chainsaw Golden Centipede coiled around Fang Yuan's feet, its dark golden carapace full of scars, and the two rows of silver serrations were damaged.
However, as the Iron Qi surged over and covered these scars, the scars were actually gradually being erased.
The black iron aura continued to deplete, and the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's two rows of serrations grew at a visible rate.
Healing Gu were divided into different categories; some healed Gu Masters, some healed all sorts of injuries, and some targeted Gu worms.
To the Chainsaw Golden Centipede, the Live Iron Gu was its healing Gu.
An hour later, the Live Iron Gu became smaller, from a fist-sized coal briquette to the size of a marble, before finally disappearing.
It was an expendable Gu.
But its sacrifice was exchanged for the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's recovery.
The Chainsaw Golden Centipede now looked brand new. The two rows of silver serrations were as bright as new, shining with a cold light. On the dark golden carapace, the scars had mostly healed. Only five or six shallow scars remained on his body.
But this was not a big deal, as in a few weeks, these scars would disappear due to the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's own recovery ability.
But without the Live Iron Gu, relying on the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's own recovery ability, it would take at least half a year for the serrations to fully grow.
The Chainsaw Golden Centipede was tough and soft, and although it consumed less primeval essence and had strong attacks, it was too tough and had flaws in its recovery ability.
Everything in this world was balanced, and there was no such thing as an all-powerful Gu. There were advantages and disadvantages. Even Rank six, Rank seven and above Gu followed this law of nature.
"This way, the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's battle strength has completely recovered …" Fang Yuan stretched out his hand, lightly touching the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's cold carapace, his face slightly pale.
His pale face was covered in cold sweat.
"Damn it, at this time …" Fang Yuan gritted his teeth, his left hand subconsciously covering his abdomen.
His consciousness entered the aperture, only to see that the white silver primeval sea was dead silent, the entire aperture was filled with an oppressive force.
All the other Gu were fiercely suppressed to the side. Only the Spring Autumn Cicada in the middle of the aperture above the sea was giving off a beautiful yellow and green light.
At this moment, not only had the Spring Autumn Cicada's wings recovered, but even its main body had gained a lot more luster.
Just like a falling object, the lower it was, the faster it would fall. The Spring Autumn Cicada's recovery speed was the same. After surviving the initial difficult and slow period, the more time passed, the faster its recovery speed became.
Thus, trouble came.
The Spring Autumn Cicada was a Rank six Gu Master, while Fang Yuan was only a Rank three Gu Master. His aperture gradually found it hard to contain the Spring Autumn Cicada.
In the past, Spring Autumn Cicada was extremely weak and the burden on the aperture was not heavy. But now, the Spring Autumn Cicada was gradually recovering, displaying the strength of a Rank six Gu, causing Fang Yuan's aperture to be like a small temple, unable to contain a great deity!
"If this goes on, before the Tie father and daughter find out the truth, I might die from the Spring Autumn Cicada! When it rains, it pours … "
The real solution was to raise his cultivation as soon as possible. When he became a Rank six Gu Master, his aperture would have the ability to contain the Spring Autumn Cicada.
But this method would take too long. In the five hundred years of Fang Yuan's previous life, he used a total of four hundred years to reach Rank six.
He was now a C grade talent with a Rank three cultivation. To cultivate to Rank six, he seriously lacked time.
Besides this, there was a temporary solution.
That was to bring the Spring Autumn Cicada out of the aperture and let it live outside his body.
But this method also had a huge disadvantage.
First, the Spring Autumn Cicada was not a battle Gu and had no ability to protect itself, it was safer to hide it in the aperture. Secondly, once a Rank six Gu appeared, it would interfere with the laws and cause a phenomenon in a certain area. As long as it stayed in a certain area for a long time, there would be a flock of strong Gu Masters attracted to it.
Fang Yuan was now in the village, there were many people and he was being watched by the Tie father and daughter. Once the Spring Autumn Cicada came out of his body, it would be noticed immediately.
Thus, he could only endure.
"The Spring Autumn Cicada's recovery speed is getting faster and faster. At this rate, I don't have much time left. When I get the forty thousand Yuan stones from Guyue and Mo Chen, I will pluck the Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus and leave. As for the Tie father and daughter, I can only take it one step at a time. "
Fang Yuan sighed in his heart.
He could only delay the matter of the Tie father and daughter. But now, the Spring Autumn Cicada did not give him any time to delay.
He was already forced into a desperate situation and time was pressing. Every minute and second he wasted was decreasing his chances of survival.
The situation of Gu Masters dying from their own Gu worms was not rare. Many Gu Masters forcefully used their Gu worms and died from the backlash of the Gu worm's power. Not mentioning the distant, Guyue and Qing Shu's example was right in front of him.
…
"Six pieces of purple gold stones, each the size of a fist. With Fang Yuan's cultivation at that time, he actually managed to open five pieces on the spot. How can he have so much primeval essence? "Tie Ruo Nan's gaze was fixated on the relevant line in the letter as she laughed complacently.
Tie Xue Leng nodded, "You finally found the suspicious point here. Not bad, only by paying attention can you discover things that ordinary people cannot see. But what can you deduce from this suspicious point? "
Tie Ruo Nan closed her eyes and activated her intuition Gu.
In the darkness, she felt a flash of inspiration in her mind. She suddenly opened her eyes, "Intuition tells me that Fang Yuan already has the Liquor worm!"
"But intuition can be wrong sometimes, it cannot represent evidence." Tie Xue Leng reminded.
"Isn't it easy to get evidence? Hehe, as long as he has the Liquor worm, he will have to feed it. As long as it is fed, there will be traces left behind. Tie Ruo Nan's lips curled into an arc, "Let's go! We will go find Guyue Fangzheng. As his younger brother, he should be most familiar with Fang Yuan. "
…
"You are asking about big brother's past?" Fangzheng's expression revealed a complex expression.
He sighed and recalled, "Big brother was an outstanding person in the past. He displayed his talent since young and wrote many poems, causing the whole village to pay attention to him. At that time, I was in awe of him and admired him. In my heart, he was like a mountain that I could not climb. Maybe it was because he stood too high and fell. Later on, in the aptitude ceremony, he was tested to only have C grade aptitude, thus he was dispirited for a long time. He slept in class and did not return home at night, getting drunk all day long. From that moment on, I understood that big brother was also a human … "
"Wait, you said getting drunk?" Tie Ruo Nan sharply sensed this keyword and squinted her eyes.
"Yes, there was a period of time when he was extremely drunk. Sigh, maybe the reality was too cruel. He was a C grade, but his brother was an A grade, he probably couldn't accept it. Actually, if I put myself in his shoes, I can understand his feelings and feelings. "Fangzheng said.
"Then let me ask you, from that time on, would Fang Yuan buy wine every once in a while?" Tie Ruo Nan asked again.
"Yes. From that moment on, big brother fell in love with the wine, and spent a lot of money on it. There was a period of time when he was addicted to Green Bamboo Wine. That is our village's specialty, a very expensive wine. He willfully robbed his classmates of their Yuan stone allowance, just to buy wine. This kind of behavior was too much, to the point that none of the students liked him. Why, is there a problem here? "In the end, Fangzheng expressed his doubts.
"There is a huge problem. I suspect that your big brother's Liquor worm was not obtained from stone gambling, but he had it for a long time. Your big brother's drunkenness was just a performance. His real motive was to hide the fact that he obtained the Liquor worm and fed it. "Tie Ruo Nan replied in a low voice.
"What?!" Fangzheng heard this and stood up from his seat in shock.
This news was too surprising!
"What you said just now, made me even more suspicious. Where does your big brother usually buy wine? I need to investigate further. "Tie Ruo Nan also stood up. She was racing against time, full of energy, and swift in her actions.
"In the entire village, there is only one place that sells Green Bamboo Wine, and that is the only inn."
"Then I'll take my leave." Tie Ruo Nan turned and left.
"Wait, I … I'll go with you!" Fangzheng hesitated for a moment, then chased after her.
Half an hour later.
Tie Ruo Nan walked on the bluestone street, and concluded: "I've already asked the innkeeper, the situation is already very clear. Fang Yuan bought so much wine for a deeper purpose. That is to feed the Liquor worm. After that, he purposely went to stone gambling, to reasonably expose the Liquor worm in front of everyone. All of this, was planned by him. "
On the side, Guyue Fangzheng walked absent-mindedly, his face somewhat lifeless.
He did not expect the truth to be like this!
There was a time when he looked down on Fang Yuan, thinking that he was decadent and self-deprecating. From that moment onwards, he felt that the peak of the past, was no longer unreachable.
But the truth was, all of this was Fang Yuan's disguise, his performance, his plot!
The surrounding people, were all kept in the dark, and were running around in circles.
And he, Guyue Fangzheng, was no exception!
Looking down on his big brother in the past, looking down on him now, it seemed like a joke full of ridicule.
"Big brother … in your heart, what am I? Am I a joke in your eyes when you pretend to be drunk? Big brother! You are so scheming, in your heart, am I so childish that you can sneer at me! "Fangzheng roared in his heart.
He was ashamed, he was angry.
He felt like he was being toyed with by Fang Yuan, all along, acting out a laughable and childish play.
He could feel Fang Yuan's disdain towards him.
"Big brother, how can you do this to me?!"
