Fang Yuan held Mature Eat Immortal Gu in his hand and carefully examined it. The Immortal Gu resembled a round plate, and upon its surface, various images of food expanded and contracted alternately. Fang Yuan could smell a delicious aroma emanating from Mature Eat Immortal Gu, and he could not help but think:
"This Immortal Gu is extremely good. If I can pair it with Snack Immortal Gu, I can easily create an Immortal Gu House through it."
The use of Mature Eat Immortal Gu was to make inedible food edible. This applied to human food as well as the food of Gu worms!
Without a doubt, a Gu like this would provide enormous assistance to any super force by allowing them to feed Immortal Gu with common and low-cost food, which would be sufficient to keep the Immortal Gu from starving.
However, Fang Yuan already possessed rank six Snack Immortal Gu, and it would not be long before he refined it to rank seven.
From his perspective, Mature Eat Immortal Gu could be used in Luck Cooking Pot, which would grant him tremendous assistance. When facing enemies who surpassed him in strength, luck was an extremely important factor.
In Fang Yuan's previous life, his immense luck had always helped him pass through crises, or even caused those crises to end before they could reach him.
Fang Yuan waved his arm, and an incomplete golden cauldron appeared. The rim of the cauldron was roughly as thick as a thumb. Its interior was spacious, but there was nothing inside it at the moment.
On the outside of the cauldron were the rough and blurry forms of eight dragons. All of these dragons coiled around one another at the base of the cauldron and extended their claws to become the legs of the cauldron. Their tails pointed toward eight different directions: north, east, west, south, northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest.
Each dragon claw was fixed onto the surface of the cauldron. The dragons' bodies stretched upward while their heads hung over the rim and gazed inward. Their eyes were closed as though they were asleep.
Incomplete Immortal Gu House — Luck Cooking Pot!
The foundation of the Immortal Gu House had already been established.
It utilized Iron Wall Immortal Gu of Metal Path, Luck Revolution Immortal Gu, a Fire Path Immortal Gu, Inspect Luck Immortal Gu, Connect Luck Immortal Gu, Break Luck Immortal Gu, Luck Disorder Immortal Gu, Dog Shit Luck Immortal Gu, and Peach Blossom Luck Immortal Gu.
A massive number of mortal Gu had also been used to replace the effects of certain Immortal Gu that Fang Yuan did not possess.
Fang Yuan grasped Mature Eat Immortal Gu.
Carefully controlling it, he sent it toward the Immortal Gu House, Luck Cooking Pot. At the same time, thousands of rank five mortal Gu from Fire Path and Food Path flew into the air. Every one of them was a rank five Gu worm.
Slowly, these Gu worms took their positions and merged into Luck Cooking Pot. The blurry and rough dragon figures became increasingly clear. They even began to display a trace of vitality.
Seeing this, Fang Yuan let out a breath and activated Mature Eat Immortal Gu. The Immortal Gu released a powerful aura, but it was suppressed by Fang Yuan. Instead, it displayed a gentle appearance and an appetizing fragrance.
Mature Eat Immortal Gu took the position of a core Gu within the Immortal Gu House Luck Cooking Pot. Immediately, a qualitative transformation occurred within the Immortal Gu House Luck Cooking Pot. The dragons began to move, and six of them became vivid and lifelike, no longer appearing blurry and rough. Only two still retained their blurry and rough forms.
Fang Yuan took a deep breath and exclaimed happily:
"Luck Cooking Pot, let me see!"
Fang Yuan first inspected his own luck.
When he inspected his luck and activated Luck Cooking Pot, more than a hundred beads of green grape immortal essence were consumed.
His luck was silver in color and covered with thin black threads. Its appearance resembled a gigantic Refinement Cauldron. A massive snowstorm was battering the enormous cauldron while infiltrating it. At the same time, the shadow of a towering structure stood within the blizzard. Furthermore, atop the Refinement Cauldron was a giant crane attempting to drink from the "water" inside it.
Using his intuition, Fang Yuan deduced:
"This Refinement Cauldron should represent my foundation in Refinement Path, and the more Immortal Gu I refine, the stronger my luck becomes. However, if I overdo it, cracks will form within my luck, and numerous weaknesses will appear…"
"As for this infiltrating snowstorm, it is actually the image of Imperial Court Blessed Land, which I devoured while seizing the foundation of Immortal Venerable Giant Sun…"
"As for this crane, it should be…?"
Fang Yuan was somewhat puzzled by the crane attempting to drink from the "water" of the Refinement Cauldron. However, after making deductions, he arrived at the answer.
"This crane should represent Immortal Crane Sect of Central Continent, which wishes to deal with me and seize Hu Immortal Blessed Land and Dang Hun Mountain…"
"But it seems they will move against me earlier than they did in my previous life…"
"What happened?"
Fang Yuan obtained the answer almost immediately.
"Heaven's Will…"
"It seems my actions have alarmed Heaven's Will, so by influencing Immortal Crane Sect, the attack will come at an extremely inconvenient time for me…"
"Fortunately, I refined Luck Cooking Pot in time."
Fang Yuan activated Luck Cooking Pot.
Luck Cooking Pot trembled with golden light and flew above Fang Yuan's head, becoming invisible to the naked eye. However, after injecting immortal essence into it, Fang Yuan could see his luck more clearly.
The temperature inside Luck Cooking Pot began to rise as his luck started boiling. The dragons opened their eyes and mouths and inhaled his luck.
Immediately, all of Fang Yuan's luck was drawn into Luck Cooking Pot.
The dragons then began moving. Their heads turned toward the Refinement Cauldron and spat out newly refined luck toward it. As a result, Fang Yuan's luck transformed into a far superior state.
When he observed his luck once again, the infiltrating snowstorm had become stronger, while the tower was now barely visible. As for the crane, it had flown from its original position and now circled around the Refinement Cauldron, eager to land. Even the black threads caused by Spring Autumn Cicada had mostly disappeared, leaving behind only a few tiny strands that were barely visible.
"This is much better…"
"After two or three more uses, my luck will become overwhelmingly dominant…"
"Even Ma Hong Yun won't be able to suppress me through luck. Perhaps I might even be able to suppress him instead?"
Fang Yuan shook his head.
Ma Hong Yun was the Child of Luck and possessed Fortune Rivalling Heaven Immortal Gu, whose effect was comparable to that of a quasi-rank nine Immortal Gu.
Perhaps Ma Hong Yun would no longer be able to suppress him through luck, but Fang Yuan likewise would not be able to suppress Ma Hong Yun through luck.
Fang Yuan returned to Imperial Court Blessed Land, where more than thirty floors had already formed.
The moment he arrived, Frost Jade Peacock and the will controlling his Human Path clone transmitted large amounts of information to him.
Fang Yuan absorbed the information and analyzed it before anything else.
The information contained a vast number of events that had occurred during the days of his absence, but nothing was truly important except for the appearance of Flying Bear Phantom Immortal Gu as a reward in one of the trials of Eighty-Eight True Yang Building.
