Water screen skyflower Gu was only rank four, once used, it would turn into a huge spherical water barrier. The water barrier's defense was outstanding and could even block the attack of a rank five Gu. However, it had a huge drawback, and that was that it could not be moved or stopped. The water barrier isolated the inside from the outside, even the owner of the Water Curtain Skyflower Gu could not enter and exit freely. Many forces used water curtain skyflower Gu to protect their cities.
Fang Yuan was not familiar with the Spring and Autumn Cicada.
In his previous life, he had just successfully refined the Spring Autumn Cicada when he was surrounded by the righteous path. He had no time to experiment with it. At that time, the Spring Autumn Cicada was not his Vital Gu, so this characteristic was not revealed.
In this life, his cultivation level was low, so he didn't dare to release the Spring Autumn Cicada.
The Spring Autumn Cicada was one of the mystical Gu in the world. It was extremely mysterious, and there was no user's knowledge or experience that was passed down in the world.
Moreover, Gu worms that reached rank six and above were unique in the world, there was only one of them. If others wanted to fuse it, there would only be a possibility of success if the previous one died. Otherwise, there was a hundred percent chance of failure.
As a result, Fang Yuan only found out about this characteristic today.
"Rebirth is not an easy thing. Spring and autumn hide calamities. The recovery speed of the Spring and Autumn Cicada was getting faster and faster. Even if one had an 'A' grade cultivation base and had access to a large amount of resources, the speed of the cultivation base's growth would not be able to keep up with the speed of the Spring and Autumn Cicada. Sooner or later, a Gu Master's aperture will burst from the Spring Autumn Cicada! "
Fang Yuan gritted his teeth.
Although being reborn was wonderful, possessing the Spring Autumn Cicada was equivalent to possessing half of the Ten Extreme Physiques. They were born to be hung under the gallows, and when the time came, they would be executed!
"I can't release the Spring and Autumn Cicada. Could it be that I can only use it to be reborn?" Fang Yuan frowned deeply.
This seemed to be the only way. If he were to be reborn again, the Spring and Autumn Cicada would once again fall into a weakened state, and at the same time, Fang Yuan would be able to escape from this dangerous situation.
However, the above situation seemed ideal, but in fact, there was a huge problem and the risk was huge.
First of all, there was no guarantee that every rebirth would be successful.
Fang Yuan had been reborn once, and he often reflected on his only precious experience.
He combined his understanding with the concepts on Earth — the world was a three-dimensional space, and time was an axis that ran through the ages. There was no time. Space was still. The movement of all things required a process, which meant that it consumed time.
There was only one world, and there was no parallel space. Using the Spring and Autumn Cicada to be reborn was to cross from a point in the second half of the timeline (the future) to a point in the first half of the timeline (the past).
However, Fang Yuan's aged body in the "future" did not exist in the "past".
Restricted by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, his body could not be brought to the past. He could only self-detonate. The energy produced by the explosion was the driving force, and the Spring Autumn Cicada contained the fragment of the Law of Time, like a lonely boat. It carried Fang Yuan's consciousness from the "future" to the "past".
Consciousness was not like the human body, which was not purely material. But strictly speaking, this "future" consciousness did not exist in the "past" at that point in time.
But this was the ingenious part of the matter!
The consciousness of the 'future' would guide the Gu Master to change themselves and influence their surroundings, gradually spreading to the whole world. This was the butterfly effect.
When the butterfly effect occurred, the world would be different from what it was before. The consciousness of the future would also have a meaning of existence and be recognized by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Someone once said, history was like a long river, changing the outcome of an event upstream would cause the downstream to change beyond recognition.
This mystical Gu world was like the water in a long river. Most people could only follow the current from upstream to downstream. But Fang Yuan's consciousness relied on the Spring Autumn Cicada to go upstream from downstream.
When he made a change upstream, the river water downstream also changed. But the river water was still the river water, and the Gu Master world was still the Gu Master world. It was just that history had taken a turn, and changed into another possible outcome.
Such an analogy could be easily understood.
However, the Spring Autumn Cicada had not recovered completely, and could only be compared to a broken boat with a hole.
Fang Yuan's cultivation was only at Rank three initial stage, and after self-detonating, there was an unimaginably huge difference from his previous life's Rank six. He could not push the Spring Autumn Cicada to go against the flow of time for too long.
"If I self-detonate and rebirth, I might not succeed. Maybe the broken boat will be stranded in the river, and my consciousness and memories will be ruthlessly eroded by time, turning into nothingness. If I want to increase my chances of success, it is best to wait until the aperture's limit. I need to stall for as much time as possible, and let the Spring Autumn Cicada recover better, and the broken boat will have fewer holes. At the same time, my cultivation will increase, and after self-detonation, I will be able to provide more power to reverse the flow. "
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan heaved a long sigh.
The change in the Spring Autumn Cicada was somewhat out of his expectations. But he had always been cautious, and had made preparations.
Behind him, the blood bat group flew over, but Fang Yuan's consciousness sank into his aperture.
The aperture was filled with yellow-green light, the Spring Autumn Cicada's aura was majestic, and the white silver primeval sea was as calm as a mirror, but the aperture walls were showing signs of danger of cracking.
All the other Gu were suppressed to the bottom of the sea by the Spring Autumn Cicada's aura.
Under Fang Yuan's will, a Gu withstood the pressure, and slowly flew out of the sea.
This Gu was shaped like a die, square, greyish-white in color, and was extremely hard.
Back then, Fang Yuan had used the Plunder Gu to forcefully take some Gu worms from Bai Ning Bing's aperture, and obtained them.
This Gu was a consumable Gu, disappearing after one use. But its effect was extraordinary, once used, it would completely squeeze out the Gu Master's foundation and potential, causing the Gu Master's cultivation to instantly reach the same rank peak stage.
"Stone Aperture Gu, explode."
Fang Yuan's will moved, and the Stone Aperture Gu immediately exploded, turning into greyish-white stone powder, like smoke or fog, instantly spreading over the primeval sea.
The aperture walls were originally light walls, but when the greyish-white stone powder came into contact with it, the light immediately dimmed. The stone powder adhered to the surface of the light walls, and the light walls gradually thickened, turning from light to stone.
A few seconds later, the four walls of Fang Yuan's aperture thickened by several times, turning into a thick and heavy stone aperture.
The Spring Autumn Cicada's yellow-green light was still fluctuating, but its aura was temporarily bearable.
Fang Yuan was originally only at rank three initial stage, and had light silver primeval essence. Primeval essence was like water, with a faint silver light. But at this moment, his cultivation rose sharply, leaping from initial stage to rank three peak stage, possessing snow silver primeval essence!
"Using the Stone Aperture Gu is equivalent to cutting off my path forward, and the aperture's potential is completely squeezed out, making it very difficult to step into rank four. But with the increase in cultivation, the aperture has turned into a stone wall, becoming several times thicker and sturdier than before, and can temporarily withstand the Spring Autumn Cicada's pressure! Bai Ning Bing probably wants to use the Stone Aperture Gu to overcome the limit of the Northern Dark Ice Soul physique. Unfortunately, the ten extreme physiques are even more troublesome than the Spring Autumn Cicada, with almost limitless potential. Even if it turns into a stone aperture for a moment, the aperture walls will quickly recover. "
At this time, the bladewing blood bat group had already pounced over.
Fang Yuan snorted coldly, taking out the Chainsaw Golden Centipede and retreating as he killed.
Fortunately, the cave was narrow, and Fang Yuan relied on the Canopy Gu's defense and the Chainsaw Golden Centipede's wide body to block the blood bat group, preventing them from surrounding him.
This greatly reduced their threat.
For a moment, the cave was filled with banging sounds.
The Chainsaw Golden Centipede's attacks, as well as the bladewing blood bats smashing into the white light armor and piercing into the cave walls at high speed, created a cacophony of sounds.
The primeval essence in Fang Yuan's aperture was being consumed rapidly.
Although there were close to a hundred blood bats, without a Gu Master to control them, there was a lot of internal friction and they could not coordinate well. In reality, Fang Yuan only needed to deal with thirty-four of them at the same time.
But this number was not something he could handle, and he could only retreat while fighting.
The awkward thing was, although he had advanced to Rank three peak stage, his aperture still had initial stage light silver primeval essence. Just relying on a C grade aperture to produce snow silver primeval essence was simply too slow. The current situation also did not allow Fang Yuan to take out a Yuan stone and divert his attention to absorb natural primeval essence.
Using a Yuan stone to quickly recover primeval essence, this method could not be used in a real battle.
Being distracted in a life and death battle was asking to be humiliated. It was extremely stupid, and was the same as courting death. At the same time, the efficiency of absorbing natural primeval essence was greatly reduced.
This method could only be used during normal cultivation, or to quickly recover primeval essence in the short interval between battles.
Fortunately, Fang Yuan had obtained a grass Gu not long ago — Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus.
Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus could produce Yuan stone, and was extremely rare. But in fact, this effect was only an expression of its innate ability.
Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus was known as a 'mobile spirit spring', and its innate ability was to produce natural primeval essence. This primeval essence, after condensing together, would form Yuan stone.
Fang Yuan had a Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus, and when it was submerged in his aperture's primeval sea, it was like a miniature spirit spring had appeared in his aperture!
Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus' recipe was created by Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable.
Only Gu Masters who reached Rank nine were respected by the world. In the righteous path, they were called Immortal Venerables. In the demonic path, they were called Demon Venerables.
Genesis Lotus Immortal Venerable, who had lived for thousands of years, was known as the first person to recover primeval essence since ancient times. In this aspect, he was superior to other Immortal Venerables and Demon Venerables, and the reason was because of Genesis Lotus!
Fang Yuan's Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus was only Rank three, and he had just refined it, so it was the lowest grade. But it could already provide Fang Yuan with an endless supply of natural primeval essence.
Once this natural primeval essence appeared in his aperture, it was automatically refined by Fang Yuan's aperture, turning into snow silver primeval essence.
If Fang Yuan absorbed the primeval essence in the Yuan stone, he would have to split a portion of his mind. However, this Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus was his Gu. Activating the Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus was as easy as waving his fingers!
Fang Yuan retreated as he fought. With the help of the Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus, his primeval essence recovery was already on par with B grade aptitude Gu Masters.
"Kill!"
He suddenly shouted, and changed his fighting style, charging into the blood bat group.
The Chainsaw Golden Centipede went berserk, and its silver sawteeth rotated crazily, slashing at a bladewing blood bat that was hiding behind it.
This blood bat was stronger than ordinary bats of the same species. It was the only male bat in this blood bat group, and had been refined by the first generation Guyue. By controlling it, one could indirectly control this blood bat group.
Fang Yuan had secretly stored his strength for this attack, and after observing it for a long time, he used an unintentional move to counter it. The first generation Guyue was not present, and immediately obtained a miraculous effect.
The male bat was killed on the spot, and turned into a pile of blood paste.
