Man tribe controlled Hong Yan valley and had won several battles in recent years, expanding rapidly.

Northern plains was different from southern border.
Southern border was a mountainous area, easy to defend and hard to attack, a long journey would result in huge losses. Southern border's clans operated slowly, slowly accumulating resources, they moved steadily and had pure bloodlines.
But northern plains was a grassland, battles were frequent. Northern plains' clans flourished quickly, but also declined quickly. A few victories could allow a small scale clan to expand into a medium scale clan. A medium scale clan could expand into a large scale clan. It could also cause a large scale clan to split into many smaller clans after a huge defeat.
Man tribe had recently annexed Shi tribe, Shi tribe's elder Shi Wu had become Man tribe's external elder.
He was a bone path Gu Master, he was the one who bought all the bone bamboo Gu in the market, it was said he wanted to research a new bone path recipe.
Fang Yuan noted this person down and asked the shopkeeper about soul path and strength path Gu worms.
"My shop has rank one jin strength Gu, it can increase a Gu Master's strength by one jin. Each Gu is sold for two hundred and twenty Yuan stone. "
"There is rank two strength of ten jin Gu, it can increase a Gu Master's strength by ten jin, the price is six hundred and ninety Yuan stone."
"There is also rank three strength of jun Gu, one jun is thirty jin, each Gu costs four thousand five hundred and fifty Yuan stone."
"Although we do not have rank four strength of ten jun Gu, if esteemed customer needs it, our shop can transfer the goods. Each strength of ten jun Gu is sold for thirty-six thousand Yuan stone. "
The shopkeeper's mouth opened and closed as he skillfully listed a long list of prices.
At the end, he added: "Of course, these are only jin strength Gu and jun strength Gu. If esteemed customer wants to walk on the ancient strength path and need beast strength Gu, our shop also has wolf strength Gu, it can increase the strength of a wolf and increase endurance. We also have horse strength Gu. It can increase the strength of a horse, it can be used best when running. "
Fang Yuan had used beast strength Gu before, walking on the ancient strength path. Jin strength Gu and jun strength Gu were the mainstream in the last few hundred years in northern plains.
Right now, the strength path was declining, it was no longer glorious, but there was development.
The one who made this contribution was a famous rank seven Gu Immortal in northern plains, Chu Du. He was called Domination Immortal. He was the one who developed jin strength Gu and jun strength Gu. He even single-handedly refined the rank six Immortal Gu 'Strength Impacting Thousand Catties'.
One jun was thirty catties.
Qianjun was equivalent to thirty thousand Jin.
According to the legends on Earth, the Golden Cudgel of the Victorious Fighting Buddha only weighed 13,500 pounds. Erlang Shan's three-pointed, double-edged saber weighed 25,200 jin.
Chu Du became a Gu Immortal three hundred years ago, the recipes he researched were widely spread. Soon, it became the mainstream strength path in northern plains.
Ancient strength path usually used beast strength Gu, such as green bull labor Gu, biao strength Gu, dragon strength Gu and so on. Because materials from the Olden Antiquity Era were very rare now, the cost of Gu refinement was very high.
As for Domination Immortal Chu Du's secret recipes, their advantage was that the ingredients were common and easy to gather. The cost was low, and the success rate of the Gu refinement was also higher than beast strength Gu.
Northern Plains was probably the place where strength path was the most popular in the five regions. Northern Plains was embroiled in battles all year round, large and small battles were frequent. And the cost of strength was low. For low rank Gu Masters, the increase in battle strength was more obvious.
Many northern plains Gu Masters also cultivated strength path.
They often fought fiercely and exhausted their zhenqi. At this time, they needed to fight. Strength was very important.
There was a saying on Earth, war was the catalyst for the advancement of technology. This saying. In this world, it was quite suitable. Northern plains was also a place where new Gu worms emerged endlessly.
From that Shi Wu elder who joined Man tribe, one could see the trend of northern plains Gu Masters researching new Gu worms.
Domination Immortal later died in battle, he died at the hands of Feng Jiuge who came to the lower realm from the Celestial Court. After his death, his descendants called him 'Afterglow of strength path'. When news of his death spread, all the Gu Masters in northern plains cried bitterly.
"Sigh … the heroes in this world are as many as the stars in the night sky, the geniuses are as many as the carps in the river. The five regions are too big, even the size of Earth cannot compare to one of them. Especially in the great era five hundred years later, dragons and snakes will rise, heroes will compete, old monsters will come out one after another, and new talents will emerge one after another. Countless heroes, ambitious people, different temperaments of the righteous path and demonic path, will collide with each other, engaging in intense battles of life and death. It is truly an unparalleled spectacle and magnificence. "
"I had secretly used old pushing Gu earlier, not only did I get rid of the bronze skin, essence iron bones, and golden steel tendons, I even got rid of the remaining strength path beast phantoms on my body. Firstly, these strength path beast phantoms originate from southern border Gu worms, they are suppressed in northern plains and are not practical. Secondly, once the beast phantoms appear, my identity will be exposed. "
"My greatest advantage now is Dang Hun mountain, the five hundred years of experience from my previous life, and the blessed land's resources, I am suitable to walk the enslavement path. But enslavement path also has flaws, thus I need to cultivate strength path to prevent beheading the leader tactic. Since I am wearing Chang Shan Yin's skin and have to integrate into northern plains, I might as well choose jun strength Gu. "
Fang Yuan's thoughts flickered before he made up his mind, ordering the rank four strength of ten jun Gu from the shop owner.
Next, he looked at soul path Gu worms.
There were many more soul path Gu worms than strength path Gu worms.
There were ghost fire Gu, ghost cry Gu, ghost face Gu, ghost axe Gu and others used for offense. There were ghost cage Gu, ghost hand Gu, ghost hit wall Gu used for imprisonment and confusion.
For defense, there were ghost divination coat Gu, soul shield Gu and others. For healing, there were ghost qi Gu, ghost sob Gu and others. For reconnaissance, there were ghost eye Gu. For movement, there were soul flying Gu and elusive ghostly Gu.
There were also ghost soldier Gu, ghostly impermanence Gu, qi travel ghost, nine child ghost mother Gu and others used enslavement path.
This was the aura of the Great Dao.
Strength path was already declining, while soul path had not declined for a long time, this could be easily seen from here.
Strength path Gu worms only had jin strength Gu, jun strength Gu and beast strength Gu, they were mostly used for offense. There were pitifully few in terms of defense, reconnaissance, and support. It was hard to form a complete set of pure strength path Gu.
But soul path Gu worms were numerous and involved in all aspects. When they formed a set, they could amplify each other and achieve better results.
Think of that Domination Immortal Chu Du, even though he was a strength path Gu Immortal, he used other Gu worms for defense, reconnaissance, storage, and so on.
Fang Yuan came with a goal, he ignored the dazzling array of soul path Gu worms and only focused on the Gu used to refine the soul.
There were no rank four Gu worms. But there were a lot of rank three Gu worms.
There were divine soul Gu, dragon soul Gu, ice soul Gu, dream soul Gu, moon soul Gu, general soul Gu, grudge soul Gu, poem soul Gu, horse soul Gu, heroic soul Gu, qi soul Gu, body soul Gu, cloud soul Gu, wind soul Gu, tiger soul Gu, and so on.
These Gu worms could refine the soul. And they all had their own advantages.
For example, by refining the soul and forming an ice soul, the Gu Master would have a huge boost when using ice type Gu worms in the future. Cloud soul and wind soul also had similar effects.
If he used dragon soul Gu to form a dragon soul, he would be able to use dragon strength Gu, dragon scales Gu, dragon travel Gu, and so on in the future, there would be benefits.
Fang Yuan looked around and saw that there was nothing more suitable for him, he chose wolf soul Gu in his plan.
Since ancient times, enslavement and soul were inseparable.
Enslavement path was originally a branch of soul path, later on, Gu Masters combined it with immemorial wisdom path and made enslavement path truly independent.
Beast enslavement Gu and slavery Gu were used to control the soul, they were rulers of the mind.
If Fang Yuan could refine a wolf soul, it would be of great help to him in enslaving the wolf group.
Rank three wolf soul Gu, one sold for seven thousand seven hundred Yuan stone. Fang Yuan went on a shopping spree, emptying the store's inventory and buying all eight wolf soul Gu.
Wolf soul Gu's effects could be stacked, a rank three wolf soul Gu was not enough to refine Fang Yuan's hundred man soul.
Wild Gu worms had their own will and were hard to refine. But the Gu worms Fang Yuan bought had already been refined by others. After the transaction was completed, these Gu worms became Fang Yuan's.
He stored these Gu into his aperture. After leaving this store, he went to another store.
The important ones were rank two and three wolf enslavement Gu, as well as rank three wolf soul Gu.
One million Yuan stone was not much, but the Gu worms Fang Yuan wanted to buy were all common rank two and three.
He also wanted to buy rank four Gu.
But this market was too small, there were few rank four Gu, and none of them were what he wanted.
After three days, Fang Yuan became a celebrity in the market. Every store knew that there was a rank four expert buying Gu worms in bulk.
On the fifth day, Fang Yuan spent five to six hundred thousand Yuan stone lavishly.
In the meantime, he would go to the farms in the market.
On the farms, many livestock were sold, and the most popular were big stomach horses. Even mortals needed this kind of horse. And those who bought hump wolves as battle mounts were all Gu Masters.
There were also many Gu Masters who caught wild beasts to sell. Like wild bulls, wild horses, eagles and so on. And in the grassland, the most commonly seen wolf was naturally among them.
Fang Yuan asked around for prices, comparing goods, and gradually found a group of thick back wolves.
Fang Yuan had poison beard wolves and wind wolves. Poison beard wolves were hard to replenish, and their battle strength was weakened during the day, they were destined to be eliminated. Wind wolves excelled in speed, while thick back wolves had thick skin and flesh. If they could be replenished and paired with the Wind Wolves, they would be able to form a proper wolf pack.
But on the ninth day, Fang Yuan unexpectedly found a young mutated beast hidden in a group of water wolves.
He immediately bought this group of water wolves without batting an eyelid, obtaining a small bargain.
The market lasted for a total of thirteen days.
After Fang Yuan bought over a thousand water wolves, he bought many materials for Gu refinement, as well as food to feed the Gu worms, and left the market on the tenth day.
After this purchase, he only had over three thousand Yuan stone left.
He spent money like water, Ge Guang clicked his tongue, inwardly admiring 'Chang Shan Yin', his heroic spirit surpassed ordinary people.
Fang Yuan followed Ge tribe, returning to their original location and setting up camp.
He concentrated on cultivating, using wolf soul Gu to refine his soul while refining Gu.
After two failures, he succeeded in refining rank three golden back wolf skin Gu into rank four azure wolf skin Gu.
Azure wolf skin Gu was used for defense, and although it was a common item, it made up for Fang Yuan's lack of defense.
On this day, he finished refining his soul and stopped cultivating, when he heard cries coming from outside.
"What happened?" He pushed open the door and asked the guard Gu Master.
