71 Chapter 2406 The Benefits Of Dreaming
Feng Jiu Huang continued her investigations,
"Hmm? I have Rank 7 cultivation but no other Rank 6 Gu. How unlucky is this guy?"
Feng Jiu Huang had grown up privileged, as the former Fairy of Spirit Affinity House and the daughter of two esteemed Immortals, not to mention attracting an Immortal Gu on her own when she was still a Gu Master.
In her lifetime Immortal Gu were rare but quite common, she did not know that most cultivators at Rank 6 did not even have an Immortal Gu, while those at Rank 7 were lucky to have even 1 Rank 6 Gu much less multiple, in fact, the truly lucky ones are those that had a Rank 7 Gu!
Indeed, Feng Jiu Huang's worldview had been spoiled, especially by Fang Yuan!
He pulled out Immortal Gu after Immortal Gu as if he was drinking water.
In history, he probably has the biggest collection of Immortal Gu!
After all, the name Heaven Refining Demon Venerable was not for nothing.
"I should strive to do well in this Dream Realm, there is a strong likelihood that I may be able to obtain Luck Path attainments!"
At this point in time Feng Jiu Huang had Great-Grandmaster attainment in a lot of common paths such as, Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Refinement, Wisdom, Ice, etc…
While some of the paths were harder than others to raise, all these paths were widely cultivated and thus, had a wide amount of Dream Realms to gain from.
Every time Feng Jiu Huang got a Path to Great-Grandmaster she would stop encountering Dreams related to them and move onto another Path.
Slowly, but surely, Feng Jiu Huang had advanced many paths to the Great-Grandmaster level.
Which in turn was beginning to influence each other.
You see all paths eventually converge back to the Dao, the closer one was to the end of the Path the easier it was to mimic the effects of other Paths.
For example, it was possible to achieve the effect of burning through Ice Path!
Frost so cold that it burns!
Having so many paths at the Great-Grandmaster level gave her constant intuition on each other, this showed the clearest effect in Refinement Path.
Her Refinement Path could leverage off her Fire Path to know where exactly the right temperature was.
Unbeknownst to Feng Jiu Huang she was beginning to experience the omniscience that made Great Dream Immortal Venerable the Venerable above Venerables.
As Feng Jiu Huang was inspecting the various mortal Gu worms she noticed one that intrigued her.
She held it and looked at it from all angles.
It was constantly warping and shaping, its color deep red with streaks of black across it, it possessed no form and was constantly moving.
But what shocked Feng Jiu Huang was: "Blood Path! This a Blood Path Gu!"
Feng Jiu Huang's perspective of Blood Path was ingrained into her through her Righteous Path elders.
It was an evil path!
However, she did not know the truth, as a matter of fact, not many people did as this was a scheme created by Giant Sun Immortal Venerable!
Most people were still unaware that Blood Sea Ancestor was Giant Sun Immortal Venerable's clone! [2]
*Knock knock*
Suddenly, a knock came from the door.
Feng Jiu Huang immediately hid the Blood Gu, as if it were highly illegal contraband.
"Ju Yang[1] come come I have new methods to try,"
A sweet angelic came from beyond the door.
"So, my name is Ju Yang, from the sound of it that's Ju Yang's wife haizz this will be hard…"
Dealing with challenging problems and life-threatening situations was no problem for Feng Jiu Huang, pretending to be someone's loved one was a whole another level of difficulty.
"Coming!" Feng Jiu Huang tried to be of as natural a tone as possible.
She opened the door and found a sweet woman standing before her.
The woman couldn't be described as a peerless beauty, she had hazelnut hair that reached to her waist and soft brown eyes, her face had an oval shape with petite features.
She looked incredibly sweet and kind, which gave her a certain charm.
Feng Jiu Huang felt a deep sense of affection welling up within her: "What's happening? This Ju Yang is so in love with this woman that even in a Dream it's affecting me?!"
This was confirmed when the woman smiled at 'Ju Yong' Feng Jiu Huang was hit with a surge of positive emotions.
"This guy seems to be a caring husband so why is he cultivating Blood Path secretly?"
Feng Jiu Huang then thought about it further and realized she was being childish; in retrospect, it could be entirely for this woman's sake that he cultivates Blood Path.
After all, Blood Path had its advantages.
For starters, it requires the least amount of effort to raise, store or create.
Usually, there were no outrageous requirements to feed, at most some rare blood or a huge quantity.
And even those hypocritic Righteous Path Clans and Sects still researched Blood Path and used Blood Path methods to identify people from their Clans or Sects.
So why couldn't this Ju Yong cultivate Blood Path to protect his family?
Feng Jiu Huang was taking large steps in growing from the naïve princess she was when her father and mother were happily together sheltering her.
*Sigh*
She missed those days.
In the real world,
A golden light began to shine forth from Giant Sun Immortal Venerable.
Immortal Killer Move ------------ All Loose Ends Tied Together [3]
Although Giant Sun was still soundly asleep a line of Luck Path Dao Marks connected him, across Space, to Feng Jiu Huang!
The Killer Move, All Loose Ends Tied Together was a defensive Killer Move.
This Killer Move was a recent invention of Giant Sun and is almost touching upon the Dao of Karma!
It detects when his Luck starts going down and ties him to that person to siphon off their Luck!
At its highest level, it could even connect to Heaven and Earth, but Giant Sun had not reached that level yet.
After all, this was the culmination of all his inheritances, Heaven and Earth Luck, Self-Luck, and All Living Beings Luck.
Although the move provided no physical defense it provided a huge boost to him now that the more Feng Jiu Huang takes from him the more of her Luck he steals!
To top it off, Feng Jiu Huang was easily the second luckiest person in history, right behind Red Lotus.
Giant Sun was getting boosted while he was sleeping!
Deep within the Purple Fog,
One could see a purple bubble floating in place.
A man was sitting inside, deep in thought.
Of course, it was none other than Fang Yuan!
He had been busy deducing and managing the Sovereign Immortal Aperture.
"Hmm, Great Dream Immortal Venerable's move is too powerful and much too stable, after all, it came from the future!"
One must know that since the destruction of Fate Gu, Time has been fragmented and blurry, events in the Future are no longer certainties as even events in the Pass can be tempered with.
"This can only be because of Red Lotus's Killer Move!"
Indeed, not only was helpful in bringing the move ahead of schedule but it also stabilized the move.
"Tsk, I don't know if we're unlucky or if it's all part of Red Lotus's plans…"
At this moment they had reached a critical juncture, the 3 Venerables were trapped inside the Killer Move, Endless Night, leaving them isolated from the rest of the world.
The good news was that they had at least managed to send their respective subordinates into the Stone Continent.
"But this poses another problem! I don't know the current state of Star Constellation and Genesis Lotus! Is the tunnel still operational? There are too many variables."
Fang Yuan decided not to dwell too much on the current state of things and instead made plans for the future.
"Since I don't know the current state of affairs, I have to be prepared for anything…"
Meanwhile, if one were able to journey through the Pink Fog they would soon come across a peculiar scene.
There was seemingly an entire world within the Fog!
In the world there were many people, they were bustling about, exploring, cultivating, fighting, etc…
However, if one managed to look past the world they would see 2 people sitting in an empty space.
It was Star Constellation and Genesis Lotus!
"Phew, fortunately, you predicated all of this,"
!!!
Indeed, from the moment Star Constellation saw 'Spectral Soul' send past Venerable Killer Moves at Fang Yuan she had a hypothesis on the power of the move, she theorized that one of the moves could come from a future Venerable!
Once her suspicion had been confirmed she knew exactly what she would have done if she could combine moves, use Red Lotus's Time Path Move, Support From The Future, to bring forth the practically unstoppable Dream Path Killer Move, Eternal Slumber.
And as soon as Red Lotus's Move disappeared, she began her scheme, she communicated with Genesis Lotus if his Painting Path could resist Dream Path, to which he replied he could do better.
Then they played their cards right, pretending to be on guard against Fang Yuan.
They had their moves at the ready to be used at any given moment,
And the moment Fang Yuan acted they immediately took action.
Genesis Lotus used Divine Emperor City and his own Painting Path Killer Move, to set up a Painting World to serve as a shield between the Pink Fog and them.
But Genesis Lotus was truly a genius as he used both Derivation Gu and the Divine Emperor City to introduce Dream Path into the recovering Immortals of Divine Emperor City.
He used the Painting World mixed with Dream Path to then project the real people of Divine Emperor City into the Painting World.
This allowed them to live lifetimes hundreds of times faster and over and over again.
He would have them go in, live life, die, wash some of their memories of their past life, while keeping any of the attainment they got using Derivation Gu, inject them back into the world with the knowledge and true meaning they got in their previous life.
Because this all happened in a Dream World, Time moved extremely fast!
It was easily a 1:1000 speed.
An entire minute in the real world could be years in the Painting world.
"This will help strengthen Heavenly Court to new heights!" Genesis Lotus was very excited.
Genesis Lotus decided to name this special move, Dream Painting World!
The Dream Painting World had its limits though, which was that attainment gained this way could only go up to Great Grandmaster.
But it was still extremely beneficial that by the end of this, they would have an army of Cultivators with Great-Grandmaster attainment!
[1] If anyone can come up with a better real name for Giant Sun plz hit me up I just put the words Giant Sun into Google Translate :<. Though reading it through Ju Yong is a not bad name. Anyway open to suggestions.
[2] I can't find too much on whether Star Constellation and Fang Yuan would spread Blood Sea Ancestor being Giant Sun but in this context, it doesn't matter cos Feng Jiu Huang would not come in contact with the information anyway.
[3] TQ @ DaoistwXVuve for the idea :3
