Fang Yuan spoke with certainty, Hei Loulan chose to believe him.
The two concealed their figures and swaggered past the range of star splendor fake eye Gu, as expected, they did not attract the attention of Gu Immortals.
Next, the two continued to discover investigative Gu worms similar to star splendor fake eye Gu on the way.
Some of these Gu worms were buried in the ground, some were disguised as leaves, and some were hidden in streams, flowing along with the flow.
Fang Yuan used his methods one by one, concealing himself, using Gu worms to target them, or burrowing into the ground and water, avoiding these investigative Gu worms.
The two had wanted to walk below the eighth star hall, that way, the shortest distance would be the closest to the eighth star hall. If there was an opportunity, they would be able to react quickly and rush to the eighth star hall in the shortest time possible, clearing up the mess and taking advantage of the situation.
But as they walked, there was a smell of blood ahead.
Fang Yuan and Hei Loulan looked at each other, the latter's eyes revealed a puzzled light as she transmitted: "Strange, the number and types of investigative Gu along the way are increasing."
"Let's go and take a look." Fang Yuan replied.
The two became more careful, dodging or deceiving investigative Gu worms, they found more and more traces of battle.
After a while, they finally reached the source of the thick smell of blood.
They saw a black leopard's corpse lying on a pile of broken rocks.
The black leopard was huge, comparable to an elephant. Its fur was long and shiny, it had a wild charm. The remnant aura showed the black leopard's identity, this was a true desolate beast.
"This is a desolate beast vanishing shadow leopard." Fang Yuan sighed.
"Who killed this vanishing shadow leopard and left the desolate beast's corpse here?" Hei Lou Lan's gaze moved around. Her beautiful eyes showed a trace of doubt.
Fang Yuan squatted down, half-kneeling on the ground, touching the ravine beside his feet.
Next. He took out a time path Gu worm and activated it carefully.
This Gu worm was rank five, it was extremely rare and looked like a crystal ball. Its name was backtrack Gu, it was a time path investigative Gu that could rewind past events within a certain range.
Backtrack Gu activated. It displayed a blurry, soundless battle scene.
On the screen, two huge figures were fighting fiercely. There was also a tiny figure standing far away.
Backtrack Gu was only a rank five mortal Gu, be it Shi Lei, vanishing shadow leopard, or Star Lord Wan Xiang, they were all rank six, their immortal bodies and beast bodies had dao marks. Thus, the results of the reconnaissance were very limited.
Hei Loulan leaned over. He watched for a while.
The soundless battle scene was very blurry and unclear. But from the general shape, he could guess that one of them was a Vanishing Shadow Leopard.
The one fighting the Vanishing Shadow Leopard did not look like a human, but a tiger-type wild beast.
And far away, there was a human figure, it was likely to be a Gu Immortal. But his face was a blur. He couldn't see clearly at all.
Not only that, but the battle was also intermittent. It was not coherent.
Fang Yuan and Hei Loulan watched with bated breath. For a moment, there was no sound except for the gentle breeze in the forest.
After activating it for more than ten breaths of time, backtrack Gu emitted smoke and the battle scene disappeared.
Forcefully backtracking a Gu Immortal level battle scene had caused this backtrack Gu to die.
Fang Yuan felt a slight heartache, he placed the charred corpse of backtrack Gu into his immortal aperture, trying not to leave any traces behind.
Even though he had been collecting this backtrack Gu in Jewel Yellow Skies recently, he only collected fifty to sixty of them. This was still during the peaceful times of the five regions, during the late stages of the chaotic war, backtrack Gu would be widely used and would be in high demand. They were all produced for their own use, Jewel Yellow Skies did not sell them at all.
Hei Loulan was very interested: "This Gu worm of yours is amazing, what is it called, did you buy it in Jewel Yellow Skies?"
There were countless types of Gu worms, Hei Loulan cultivated strength path and not time path, she only had a general understanding of it. As for other paths, she was limited to the classic Gu worms.
Gu worms like backtrack Gu were rare, it was normal that she did not know much about them.
Fang Yuan did not answer, he took out another Gu.
This Gu was refined by him according to his memories, according to the course of history, it had appeared three hundred years earlier, it was called thread trace Gu.
The Gu worm had a unique appearance, it was like a small horsewhip, a toy for northern plains children. Fang Yuan held it with his huge and sinister zombie claws, making this Gu look even smaller.
Fang Yuan held the horsewhip in front of him and lightly whipped it.
With a snap, traces of something suddenly appeared in front of the originally empty space.
"What is this?" Hei Loulan's beautiful eyes stared at the traces without blinking.
Snap snap snap.
Fang Yuan continuously whipped the horsewhip shaped thread trace Gu, immediately, more and more lines appeared in the air.
Hei Loulan saw this and quickly realized that the location where Fang Yuan whipped was the location of the intense battle in the scene earlier. Other than that, it was also the location where that vague Gu Immortal was standing.
A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, Hei Loulan's pupils expanded as she blurted out: "Don't tell me these traces are dao marks?"
Fang Yuan smiled smugly: "That's right, they are dao marks. Be it Gu Immortals or desolate beasts, their bodies are filled with dao marks. Wherever they stand, there will be dao marks left behind for a period of time. It is just that these dao marks are very weak, even the most sensitive Gu Immortal cannot sense them. Unless I use the thread trace Gu that I developed, they will not show up. I can observe them and see the types of dao marks, thus deducing some information about them. "
Fang Yuan once again shamelessly took the creations of others in his previous life and used them on himself.
"Thread trace Gu …" Hei Loulan muttered, her gaze towards Fang Yuan changed slightly.
Fang Yuan pointed at the place where Star Lord Wan Xiang was standing, continuing: "Look there, the dao marks are in the shape of a human, they are blue in color. Evidently, there was a star path Gu Immortal who was watching the battle with his arms crossed. The main body of the dao marks has been staying there, although there are some dao marks around, they are all surrounding the main body. It can be seen that this star path Gu Immortal did not make a move during the entire battle. Look at the density of the dao marks, it seems to be a rank six Gu Immortal. "
Hei Loulan's ears pricked up. She looked at the direction where Fang Yuan was pointing, paying full attention to what he was saying.
Fang Yuan pointed at the place where the vanishing shadow leopard died, there were black dark path dao marks there. There were also red fire path dao marks.
He continued: "The dark path dao marks are clearly the vanishing shadow leopard's, the red dao marks should be the existence that killed the vanishing shadow leopard. As for their identity, whether they were human or beast, it is uncertain. Look at the dense number of dao marks, they are intertwining with each other, it shows how intense the battle was. The dark path dao marks are sparse, while the red dao marks are denser. It can be determined that the existence that killed the vanishing shadow leopard was also a rank six Gu Immortal. "
Hei Loulan's lips were slightly agape as she listened.
Her gaze landed on the thread trace Gu in Fang Yuan's hands. Her gaze was slightly heated.
Although this thread trace Gu was only a rank five mortal Gu, it was too useful. Using this Gu, she could obtain so much useful information.
The key was the thought that went into refining it. It was very unique. Taking a different path, bypassing the norm, it was unexpected.
Although Hei Loulan had just become an immortal, she knew the importance of information, she placed great importance on Fang Yuan's' invention 'of thread trace Gu.
If Shi Lei and Star Lord Wan Xiang were here, they would be sweating profusely.
They were currently using traditional investigative and anti-investigative methods, thread trace Gu just happened to find a gap in their anti-investigative methods. Fang Yuan's method. After all, it originated from the five regions chaotic war, it was the crystallization of the entire five regions' wisdom. It was equivalent to being half a generation ahead of the current Gu Immortals, it had a huge advantage!
Crack crack crack.
Fang Yuan whipped the horse whip a few more times, more dao marks appeared, but at the same time, many dao marks disappeared.
These dao marks were very weak, under the effect of thread trace Gu, they condensed and appeared, their lifespan was greatly shortened.
The dao marks intertwined with each other, becoming more and more chaotic. Fang Yuan finally stopped whipping the horse whip, sighing: "This thread trace Gu's effect is only so, the appearance of dao marks can only last for a period of time, it requires the observer to have experience. Moreover, activating the Immortal Gu will leave behind corresponding dao marks. In an intense battle, many methods were used, the dao marks were tangled together, it was very chaotic and could not be seen. But thankfully, both sides did not use many methods in this battle, we can still see the general situation. "
Hei Loulan's eyelids twitched slightly.
Just a mere rank five mortal Gu was able to obtain so much useful information, was he still not satisfied with it?
Her gaze was fixed on thread trace Gu, until Fang Yuan stored it in his immortal aperture. She acutely discovered that thread trace Gu's whip was originally in good condition, but after using it, it was very damaged. Evidently, there was a price to pay for awakening dao marks.
Hei Loulan estimated that this thread trace Gu could be used at least two more times. Immediately, her evaluation of the thread trace Gu rose to another level.
A total of three chances!
A mere rank five Gu could have three chances to investigate a rank six existence and obtain so much information.
Just as Hei Loulan was about to ask Fang Yuan if he was selling thread trace Gu, Fang Yuan took out an investigative Gu worm.
This was a qi path Gu worm, Fang Yuan activated it and allowed it to absorb aura.
Next, Fang Yuan put this qi path Gu worm back and took out another Gu worm.
He roamed around the battlefield like this, using Gu worms from time to time. Hei Loulan only recognized a small portion of these Gu worms, and it was only vague, to the extent that she could not be sure. As for the rest, Hei Lou Lan was completely clueless and could not recognize them at all.
She subconsciously pursed her lips, for the first time, she felt that Fang Yuan was unfathomable.
During the trip to Northern Plains, she only felt that Fang Yuan was astute and astute, he was her greatest enemy. She had no choice but to cooperate with Fang Yuan, she was clear that this was asking a tiger for its skin.
She borrowed Fang Yuan's strength to successfully pass the heavenly calamity and ascend to an immortal, she had thought that she could suppress Fang Yuan. But soon, Fang Yuan borrowed her and Fairy Li Shan's strength to intimidate the Gu Immortals of Crane Gate. The whole process was accomplished without a fight, Hei Loulan did not even have a chance to make a move. Since there were no losses, Fang Yuan did not have double the compensation, he achieved his goal without expending a single soldier.
In contrast, Hei Loulan herself, in order to coax Fang Yuan into helping her, she gave Reckless Savage Demon Venerable's precious true meaning to Fang Yuan. Fang Yuan was truly a ruthless person, he directly swallowed it, not even leaving any leftovers for Hei Loulan.
Later, when Fang Yuan started the guts Gu business, he gave the profits to Hei Loulan and Fairy Li Shan of his own accord. Although Hei Loulan's strength qi Immortal Gu was needed in the process, Hei Loulan felt uncomfortable all along, as if she was being controlled by someone.
Now that Hei Loulan saw these methods used by Fang Yuan, her heart shuddered.
