Red, green, and black, the three colors intertwined in the air.
The flickering light shone in Fang Yuan's eyes. He had a focused expression as he stared at the incomplete product, trying his best to stabilize the situation.
Whoosh —!
All of a sudden, an extremely sharp buzzing sound exploded.
The sound wave spread in the air, forming a strong wind that flipped over the tables and chairs in the room. The vase fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. The ink spilled and the paper fluttered.
The three colored light completely dissipated, the incomplete product exploded into a pool of blue blood that splattered on the surrounding walls.
"Failed again …" Fang Yuan sighed lightly.
These days, he had been refining Gu. This Gu was called nauseating infant sob Gu, it was specially used to deal with three hearts combination soul.
Three hearts combination soul was a famous killer move of Dong Fang tribe, it could allow three Gu Masters' souls to fuse into one temporarily, and achieve a state where they could work together seamlessly regardless of offense or defense.
Fang Yuan had experienced it personally these days, some of his blurry memories became clearer.
He vaguely remembered that in this battle between Hei Lou Lan and Dong Fang Yu Liang, Hei Lou Lan's face was filled with dirt and grime, and she only managed to win by a narrow margin. Because of three hearts combination soul, Hei Loulan's side suffered heavy losses.
Later, when Ma Hong Yun rose to power, when dealing with Dong Fang tribe, three hearts combination soul caused him great trouble many times.
There was even one time when he was schemed against by others and lost miserably to this killer move, being captured alive by Dong Fang tribe.
Ma Hong Yun became a prisoner, and unexpectedly met Dong Fang Qing Yu, capturing her heart. Dong Fang Qing Yu not only secretly let him go, but also told Ma Hong Yun the secret of this killer move.
After Ma Hong Yun returned safely, he worked with his wife, Sheng Ling Er, who had already become a refinement path master, to refine nauseating infant sob Gu, which was specially used to counter three hearts combination soul.
Nauseating infant sob Gu was extremely effective on the battlefield. Ma Hong Yun's side obtained complete victory, while Dong Fang tribe suffered defeat after defeat.
As the number of failures increased, three hearts combination soul gradually disappeared from the stage of history.
During the five regions chaotic war, the world was in chaos, three hearts combination soul was stolen by Central Continent's Gu Masters and improved upon, it became popular again. Ma Hong Yun directly released the nauseating infant sob Gu's recipe, after the world grasped it, they could modify the original Gu recipe and decipher the modified three hearts combination soul.
At this point, the Three Hearts Combination Soul had truly lost its use and was no longer used by others.
Fang Yuan had been reborn and had five hundred years of memories from his previous life, he naturally knew the recipe of the Nauseating Infant Sob Gu.
But the Nauseating Infant Sob Gu was a rank four Gu, the refinement materials were not rare, but the refinement difficulty was high. With Fang Yuan's almost-grandmaster refinement level talent, he tried more than ten times and failed every time.
Sighing, Fang Yuan stood up and walked to the window.
This window was also destroyed by the air currents produced when the Gu refinement failed. A large hole appeared in the glass-like membrane. The wind from the outside carried the scent of grass and flowed into the room through the hole.
Fang Yuan gently pressed his palm against the window and mobilized a wisp of true essence.
Soon, the membrane on the window grew back and condensed again, blocking the wind outside.
The walls moved like sausages, and the potholes from before were all filled up. The broken vase fragments and the blue blood stains on the ground were all absorbed.
This was the convenience of the large lizard house Gu.
The large lizard house Gu was a rank three Gu, advanced from the rank two lizard house Gu.
The lizard house Gu was already as big as a bus, and its appearance was a four-legged lizard. The lizard house Gu had a passageway inside, with several rooms on both sides.
The large lizard house Gu was like a two-storey building, five times the size of the lizard house Gu.
It had two floors, with more rooms and more space. It was given to Fang Yuan by Hei Loulan after he joined Hei tribe.
This was where he usually cultivated and lived his daily life.
Other than Fang Yuan, there were six rank three Gu Masters guarding the surroundings.
They took turns to change shifts, and were equipped with special investigative Gu to target almost all stealthy Gu Masters.
If Shadow Sword Expert attacked again, he would be discovered by the Gu Masters before he could even get within a hundred steps, and his whereabouts would be exposed. This was the arrangement made after Fang Yuan was assassinated.
At this moment, Fang Yuan looked down from the window, and saw large numbers of Gu Masters and mortals nervously setting up defenses.
Some were digging ditches, some were growing trees, erecting watchtowers, and some were building mud walls … the outline of a tight defensive line was gradually forming.
This was already the third line of defense.
The terrain of Northern Plains was mostly flat grassland, there were no obstacles, it was a flat plain. Thus, a long time ago, when two forces fought in northern plains, if they lost, they could not even escape, and would be chased by the victors.
If a battle was lost, it usually meant that the situation was set, and a tribe would quickly decline, or even be exterminated.
But with a defensive line, it was different.
Once the battle was lost, be it retreating or escaping, or hiding, or waiting for a chance to counterattack, these defensive lines would play a huge role.
War was a matter of life and death, and related to the rise and fall of a tribe. It was extremely dangerous and hard to predict. There was a high chance that a small accident or a mistake on one's side would lead to failure.
At this time, the tribe would retreat and defend according to the defensive line. After taking a breather and stabilizing their footing, they could regroup.
This was the world of Gu, and individuals possessed mystical powers. It was not difficult to build a defensive line that was as long as Earth's Great Wall.
People soon realized the huge benefits of such a defensive line.
Thus, the battle in northern plains was not a decisive battle, where groups of riders would charge and kill, but a battle of attrition.
"According to reports, Dong Fang tribe is already setting up the fourth defensive line. Right now, we are three thousand li away from them. According to tradition, they will stop every eight hundred to a thousand li, and set up a new defensive line. "Fang Yuan recalled.
These days, he had been cultivating in seclusion, but he kept track of the outside world's information. He was a higher-up in Hei tribe's alliance army, and Gu Masters would send him information every day.
"Looking at the time, tomorrow, our vanguard will come into contact with the enemy's vanguard and start fighting. But there is still some time before I make my move. "
Fang Yuan and Hei Loulan were currently overseeing the central army.
A few days ago, Hei Loulan had sent someone to pass on a plan to show weakness. In summary, it was to beat them at their own game, and lure out Dongfang Yuliang's arrangements in advance, and let Fang Yuan gain the upper hand by striking later.
Fang Yuan sneered inwardly at this.
He had the night wolf emperor, and the night wolf group was easy to replenish, but Hei Loulan gave up on this cannon fodder. Of course, there were elements of targeting Dongfang Yuliang, but more of it was to suppress Wolf King Chang Shan Yin.
Fang Yuan portrayed Chang Shan Yin's arrogance to a great extent. Hei Loulan was unhappy because of this. The alliance army was newly established, and all the forces were competing with each other. Especially in the current situation, Hei tribe's side was clearly stronger, so every Gu Master had the intention to fight for battle merits, suppress others, and snatch more benefits.
Water Demon Hao Ji Liu, in order to snatch the position of the vanguard general, stood motionless in front of the main tent and blocked the entrance for three days, clamoring for battle. After defeating over ten competitors, he finally got what he wanted.
Cunning gentleman started his plan, and in order to stand out, he took the initiative to side with Hei Loulan, and temporarily obtained the position of the alliance army's number one strategist.
This was internal strife.
Any organization or system would have internal strife.
Chang Shan Yin had a proud and aloof personality, and he had five hundred thousand wolves, thus he was ostracized by everyone — You are so strong, if you make a move, all the battle merits will basically be yours, then what are we supposed to do?
Hei Loulan agreed to Cunning Gentleman's plan, it was also to maintain her position and protect the system — You, Wolf King, are so strong now, I can't even eat or sleep in peace, I need to maintain balance and suppress you.
Fang Yuan could see through these things and these people's thoughts.
His situation was different, the contest for the Imperial Court was just a springboard. His ambition was huge, it was not known to outsiders. With Hu Immortal blessed land, his need for these battle spoils was greatly reduced.
"Since they don't want me to make a move, then I need time to cultivate, isn't that better?"
What Fang Yuan lacked now were not these ordinary resources, but rare resources and a large amount of time.
A day later, Water Demon Hao Ji Liu led the vanguard army and engaged in battle with the Dong Fang alliance army's generals.
Before the battle, Hao Ji Liu was extremely brave, he killed the enemy's general and three assistant generals.
The enemy army was like a group of dragons without a leader, their morale was low, Hao Ji Liu led his army and attacked, obtaining a great victory. But in the process of pursuing them, he was ambushed by Shadow Sword Expert Bian Si Xuan, suffering heavy injuries.
Hao Ji Liu could only stop his attacks and set up camp, recuperating as he waited for the main army to arrive.
Three days later, Hei Loulan led the middle army to the frontline.
Five days later, the left and right armies converged.
The two sides were only a few hundred li apart, flags were erected and tents were everywhere. The battle was about to begin, the atmosphere was heavy.
Late at night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
In the room, Fang Yuan sat cross-legged on a cushion with his eyes closed, activating space thought Gu.
Space thought Gu was a rank five Gu, obtained from Jewel Yellow Skies. Through moving perspective cup Gu, it was sent to Fang Yuan from Hu Immortal blessed land.
Under the effect of space thought Gu, Fang Yuan produced translucent thoughts that were like bubbles, slowly approaching the brain explosion Gu in his head.
Brain explosion Gu was only a rank four Gu, Fang Yuan had used Spring Autumn Cicada's aura to forcefully subdue it on the day he obtained it.
But he still kept the brain explosion Gu in his head.
These days, brain explosion Gu had been sucking his brain juice, and was constantly being corroded by space thought, it was finally time for a qualitative change!
In an instant, brain explosion Gu broke apart, turning into a lump of black light, a puff of white smoke, as well as a fist-sized space thought.
"The reverse refinement succeeded." Seeing this, Fang Yuan let out a breath of turbid air, his heart filled with endless joy.
He moved the black light and white smoke out of his head, turning them into two rank three Gu.
These Gu were all ordinary Gu, Fang Yuan placed them aside and ignored them.
The crucial point was that space thought.
Fang Yuan placed the space thought into his head, reading the information inside.
Soon, his body shook lightly, and his pupils dilated. His face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.
