The stone lotus island ambush planned by Fang Yuan had ended.
Bright light still filled Celestial Court, but in Central Great Hall, the atmosphere was heavy.
"At the crucial moment, Gu Liu Ru risked his life to block Myriad Year Flying Warship, we barely survived." Nine Spiritual Fairy said as she coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Her eyes were filled with tears, Gu Liu Ru risked his life to defend them appeared in front of her again.
Nine Spiritual Fairy had a beautiful appearance, she liked to wear large robes, she usually had long sleeves and had a majestic aura, but now, she was bathed in blood, she was covered in injuries, her large robe was tattered and hanging down. Nine Spiritual Fairy's thin and weak body was wrapped in the robe, showing a never before seen weakness.
In this battle in the River of Time, Celestial Court had the absolute advantage at the start, but they lost in the end, all six Immortal Gu Houses were destroyed, only Nine Spiritual Fairy and Feng Jiuge managed to escape.
Feng Jiuge was also in the hall now, he did not have his usual elegance, his eyes were dim, they were no longer bright, they showed a perplexed expression.
Fairy Myrtle sighed, she told the two to recuperate.
She already knew about the entire battle situation, she called Nine Spiritual Fairy over to ask for more details and clues.
"To think that the stone lotus island is in Fang Yuan's hands, how did he do it? We did not sense anything at all. "Fairy Myrtle deduced silently but could not find any clues.
Precisely because of this mistake, Celestial Court lost in this battle. Everything was within Fang Yuan's calculations, they lost too miserably.
Duke Long smiled bitterly: "The truth is, we had guessed that Fang Yuan had a Red Lotus true inheritance before. But in the previous battle, Myriad Year Flying Warship was forced to run around by us, even using the dangers of the River of Time was useless. Now, it seemed that Fang Yuan had purposely arranged that battle. Firstly, it was to attract our attention so that he could fight for the Dragon Palace. Secondly, it was to pave the way for this battle and show weakness to the enemy. What a cunning and sinister devil! "
"Then, when did Fang Yuan obtain the true teachings of the Red Lotus? If he had obtained it recently, then so be it. If he had set foot on the stone lotus islands a long time ago, that would be even more terrifying, "Fairy Myrtle thought as she felt a chill run down her spine.
Now, the Celestial Court was facing a very difficult situation.
However, no matter how difficult the predicament was, the Celestial Court had to face it directly. There was no room for evasion.
Duke Long said solemnly, "Even if Fang Yuan obtains a copy of Red Lotus' true legacy and grasps the Twelve Zodiac Ancient Battle Formation, we still have to continue investing our strength in the River of Time!"
Of course.
Red Lotus had more than one true inheritance, if Fang Yuan obtained a second or third one, he would be even more terrifying.
For the Celestial Court, the River of Time was a place they had to defend, Red Lotus' true inheritance was something they had to fight for. This problem might only be alleviated and improved after fate Gu was successfully repaired. But now, the Celestial Court had to start anew. Six Immortal Gu Houses were destroyed, they had to build another six, or even ten!
Fairy Myrtle nodded with a solemn expression. In this aspect, she had the same opinion as Duke Long.
"But …" Fairy Myrtle had a troubled expression.
There was a difficulty in this.
To continue investing time path resources in the River of Time, the most direct way was to send time path Gu Immortals.
But because of Red Lotus Demon Venerable, the accumulation of time path Gu Immortals in Celestial Court was very weak.
Without time path great experts, they could only use time path Immortal Gu Houses to supplement them.
The Celestial Court suddenly lost six time path Immortal Gu Houses, the losses were too severe, they needed a large number of time path Immortal Gu to rebuild them.
Even though Nine Spiritual Fairy and Feng Jiuge were alive, they did not bring back many Immortal Gu.
The Celestial Court needed to refine a large number of time path Immortal Gu to build Immortal Gu Houses.
Among them, Gu refinement immortal materials were not a problem.
The Celestial Court's foundation was as deep as the sea, it had been accumulated for millions of years, it was not just for show. The Celestial Court had three treasure vaults of one million, they were named 'front, middle, and back'. The three vaults corresponded to the time span of one million years. The accumulation of the Celestial Court in the past one million years was all used in the corresponding vaults.
Any one of these vaults was much more than the total vaults of the ten great ancient sects.
Old Ancestor Xue Hu had spent all of his fortune to refine a rank eight fortune rivalling heaven Gu. With Fang Yuan's current foundation, he did not dare to attempt to refine a rank eight Immortal Gu. Ordinary super forces would suffer huge losses when refining rank eight Immortal Gu. But for the Celestial Court, not to mention one rank eight Immortal Gu, even if they refined ten, their foundation would not be damaged.
The Celestial Court did not lack immortal materials, what it lacked were refinement path great experts.
Yuan Qiong Du was a refinement path expert, he had been in charge of repairing fate Gu. If he had to refine the lost time path Immortal Gu House, it would be too difficult for him.
He was only one person, his energy was limited.
"If one or two refinement path experts walked out of the immortal graveyard, that would be great." Fairy Myrtle thought to herself. Regretfully, the immortal graveyard could not be manipulated by outsiders, she could not awaken any Gu Immortal she wanted.
Duke Long also realized this problem, he thought about it and said: "Then gather the refinement path Gu Immortals of the ten great ancient sects, and even other sects, manage them and recruit them into the Celestial Court, let them work together to refine time path Immortal Gu."
Fairy Myrtle nodded, Yuan Qiong Du was in charge of repairing fate Gu, if there was no movement from the immortal graveyard, the Celestial Court could only do this to resolve their current problem.
Fairy Myrtle sighed in her heart: "If we had invaded Lang Ya Sect back then and taken in the entire sect, that would have been great. The problem now was not a problem, but Lang Ya Sect ended up in Fang Yuan's hands. "
The Celestial Court lost the initiative at the first step, they were restrained step by step. In contrast, Fang Yuan repeatedly used his advantage in refinement path to give the Celestial Court a hard time. Yuan Qiong Du was the one who felt this the most.
Fairy Myrtle and Duke Long had heavy hearts.
Fang Yuan's victory in the River of Time was a huge blow to the Celestial Court.
But the River of Time was only one aspect, the Celestial Court's situation was worsening.
In Northern Plains, Longevity Heaven had been working hard to unify the strength of Northern Plains' Gu Immortal world.
In Western Desert, Fang Di Chang refined Divine Bean Palace and led Fang clan to rise.
In Southern Border, even though Wu Yong was close to the Celestial Court, Beacon Towers were being built everywhere, it had become a sore point for the Celestial Court.
As for Eastern Sea …
"According to the latest information, Qi Sea Ancestor defeated Zhang Yin in one move. Zhang Yin is a famous rank eight lone immortal in Eastern Sea, but he could not retaliate at all. Qi Sea Ancestor's battle strength is truly shocking, after this battle, his reputation soared and a large number of Eastern Sea Gu Immortals joined his banquet. "Fairy Myrtle was deeply worried.
Duke Long nodded: "Even for me, it is not easy to achieve this. Qi Sea Ancestor seems to have gotten stronger, according to his words, he comprehended Primordial Origin's true inheritance and improved his battle strength. "
After Fang Yuan defeated Zhang Yin, he told the Eastern Sea immortals honestly: His battle strength had a breakthrough recently, the reason was because he obtained Primordial Origin's qi path true inheritance from the Celestial Court.
Duke Long continued: "Since Qi Sea Ancestor said this, we can see that he is getting close to the Celestial Court, but he is still neutral. This person can be roped in. "
Qi Sea Ancestor had been in seclusion for so long, he had battle strength that rivaled Duke Long, but he was still a secluded cultivator, it showed that he had no ambitions.
Even if he had ambitions now, the Celestial Court that had the complete Primordial Origin true inheritance was more attractive to him.
The neutral Qi Sea Ancestor made Duke Long and Fairy Myrtle very vigilant, but they were also reassured.
Not only because of Qi Sea Ancestor's personality, but also because of his lifespan.
Lifespan had always been the main factor that restricted Gu Immortal great experts.
Qi Sea Ancestor was clearly someone who did not have much lifespan left, he could become younger by using lifespan Gu.
He was already so old, he might have already used other methods to extend his lifespan. And these methods had their flaws, lifespan Gu would be ineffective if they were used many times.
Duke Long did not have a long lifespan, but he believed that Qi Sea Ancestor's lifespan was not much better.
Fairy Myrtle suddenly said: "Since Qi Sea Ancestor said this, maybe we can send Gu Immortals to the banquet. Even if we did not receive Qi Sea Ancestor's invitation, the whole world will know that Qi Sea Ancestor benefited from us. Even if it is a transaction, he will not be able to reject us. "
Duke Long agreed to this suggestion, even if it did not work, this was a way to probe Qi Sea Ancestor.
The current changes in the situation in the outer realm were very unfriendly to the Heavenly Courts. Only the East Ocean was relatively calm. The Celestial Court wanted to maintain a friendly relationship with Eastern Sea's forces for now.
Eastern Sea, above qi sea.
After Fang Yuan defeated Zhang Yin in one move, the commotion here increased by several times, the number of Gu Immortals attending the banquet increased.
The first thing the Gu Immortals did was to pay respects to Qi Sea Ancestor, to pay their respects to the number one immortal of Eastern Sea.
The battle between Qi Sea Ancestor and Duke Long had already spread throughout the five regions. Now that Zhang Yin was defeated, Qi Sea Ancestor became the publicly recognized number one person in Eastern Sea, nobody doubted this.
The whole world was deceived by Fang Yuan.
Zhang Yin was one of the Four Dragon Generals, he had great coordination with Fang Yuan, together with the activation of the immortal formation under qi sea, Qi Sea Ancestor's attack was so shocking.
Nobody knew that Zhang Yin was controlled, even Duke Long did not know about Dream Token. In the previous life, after he seized Dragon Palace, he learned about the secret of the Four Dragon Generals.
Nobody could guess that Qi Sea Ancestor and Fang Yuan were the same person. After all, Fang Yuan only had rank seven cultivation level, while Qi Sea Ancestor was a genuine rank eight. Fang Yuan had been trying to hide the sovereign immortal aperture's secret, he gave up on some small benefits and obtained several times the benefits here.
Xie Bao Shu came.
His face was handsome and gentle like jade. He had a graceful bearing and the appearance of a noble young master. He was a renowned independent cultivator in the Eastern Sea. He had a unique method to nurture vicissitude trees, he was once a major producer of year Gu, but this business was ruined by Fang Yuan. In Fang Yuan's previous life, he had even worked with You Xian Zi to snatch Central Continent's moonlight mushrooms.
Zui Xian Weng came.
He was a rare food path Gu Immortal in the current five regions, he was also the owner of Eastern Sea's wine sea. He had a huge collection of wine, he held a grand banquet every year. This time, he brought a thousand jars of top quality wine, they were specially given to Qi Sea Ancestor.
Seven Seas Snake Lady came.
This venomous woman was beautiful on the outside but ruthless on the inside. Even though she was a lone immortal, she owned seven sea areas, this showed her strength. At the same time, she was publicly recognized as one of the six beauties of Eastern Sea, her reputation was on par with Song Yi Shi.
Great Treasury Immortal also came.
This person cultivated information path, he was dressed like a scholar, his sleeves fluttered in the wind, he had a graceful demeanor. In the previous life, he attacked Central Continent and stole Mi Lan Guang's rank seven immortal material electrolytic iron starflower.
The qi sea banquet caused a huge commotion in Eastern Sea's Gu Immortal world, all sorts of people showed up.
Among them, there were more lone immortals than the righteous path.
Eastern Sea had more lone immortals than the other four regions, after all, Eastern Sea had the most abundant resources. At the same time, the righteous path had many territories, Gu Immortals were needed to defend them, lone immortals had much more freedom.
"Central Continent Gu Immortal Jun Shen Guang pays respects to Qi Sea Ancestor with a gift, I came uninvited, please forgive me." Celestial Court rank eight Jun Shen Guang appeared.
The banquet went silent, countless gazes gathered on Fang Yuan's face.
Fang Yuan chuckled, he was still nonchalant: "An esteemed guest has come, what crime is there to offend? The sea is tolerant of all rivers, tolerance is great. My Eastern Sea is tolerant of all things, how can we not have such magnanimity? Please take a seat. "
Fang Yuan waved his sleeves, another seat appeared. Even though it was a seat of honor, it was below the Eastern Sea rank eight Gu Immortal.
Seeing this, the Eastern Sea Gu Immortals' expressions relaxed.
Eastern Sea was the region that could accept outside Gu Immortals the most among the five regions, but it was still xenophobic.
The Central Continent Gu Immortals' arrival was within Fang Yuan's expectations.
In fact, he had been waiting for the Celestial Court's envoy to appear.
Fang Yuan looked around, seeing that almost everyone had arrived, he spoke: "Everyone, please listen to me."
The banquet became silent again, everyone held their breaths, waiting for Fang Yuan to speak.
Jun Shen Guang saw this and was inwardly shocked: Qi Sea Ancestor had only appeared for a short period of time, his reputation in Eastern Sea had already reached this level!
Nobody dared to ignore Qi Sea Ancestor's words, not even a single word or word.
Fang Yuan did not speak much, but he clearly expressed his political opinion — peaceful coexistence, mutual exchange. Upholding justice and resolving disputes.
In the end, he said, "This banquet isn't just a gathering of everyone. It's also a trade fair, an auction, and an arena. If you have any disputes, I can host it, everyone in Eastern Sea will be the witnesses, we can gamble and resolve the conflict. If you have any resource needs or want to sell, you can come forward and state your request. From now on, I will hold a qi sea banquet at this time every year. Of course, I will not charge any transaction fees. "
"Ancestor is wise."
"Ancestor is selfless and righteous, we are in deep admiration."
The Eastern Sea immortals praised.
Jun Shen Guang's heart shook: Qi Sea Ancestor's actions would greatly increase his influence in Eastern Sea's Gu Immortal world. Strong strength would make people revere him, while huge benefits would make people scramble for them.
Moreover, qi sea banquets would be held every year!
