Reverend Insanity Chapter 2285 - Jiu Ge Helps Spectral Soul
Immortal killer move — Obscured Heavenly Secret!
Everything happened stealthily.
Only Fang Yuan knew how much immortal essence was used to activate this rank nine killer move.
Three hundred and sixty rank nine immortal essence beads!
After heavenly secret Gu was raised to rank nine, obscured heavenly secret was also finally modified by Fang Yuan, it became a true rank nine killer move.
Compared to the rank eight obscured heavenly secret, the rank nine version used much more immortal essence and the activation time was lengthened to over ten times of before. In addition, the steps were also six times more complicated, and Fang Yuan needed much more thoughts in the process.
After paying such a price, rank nine obscured heavenly secret also became much more powerful!
It was not a quantitative growth but a qualitative change.
Originally, rank eight obscured heavenly secret killer move could create temporary heaven path dao marks that resembled fishing nets, they were layered over each other in a criss-cross fashion, covering Fang Yuan’s entire body.
It was like how a caterpillar used its threads to create a thick and hard cocoon around itself.
Right now, although the heaven path dao marks were still in a fishing net form, they were more tightly connected and were no longer overlapping, he only had one simple layer around him.
This layer of heaven path dao marks were not temporary dao marks, they had stabilized into a certain constant state.
Fang Yuan understood the reason behind this, after observing closely and using investigative killer moves, he barely managed to detect this layer of the heavenly secret fishing net.
It was in a state of existence and non-existence!
The heavenly secret fishing net immediately made Fang Yuan think of the killer move that Thieving Heaven Demon Venerable left behind, ghostly concealment.
Honestly speaking, the heavenly secret fishing net was still inferior to ghostly concealment. But Fang Yuan could sense that the two had already become similar, they shared a type of special trait.
Ghostly concealment could last for a long time without expending immortal essence.
The heavenly secret fishing net was also the same.
But the heavenly secret fishing net could not compare to ghostly concealment, the reason was that although it could stabilize, it could still be consumed.
As long as the investigative method used on it was strong enough, the heavenly secret fishing net would be expended while resisting it, as long as the expenditure exceeded the natural recovery speed, then the heavenly secret fishing net would start experiencing a deficit, it would be like a sinking ship that got gradually submerged.
Of course, ghostly concealment had such a flaw too, but its recovery speed and durability were much higher than the heavenly secret fishing net.
Naturally, the information of Fang Yuan’s ghostly concealment was already known by his enemies, they had created countermeasures against it.
Thus, ghostly concealment’s actual value was much lower than obscured heavenly secret.
Even though it was more refined than obscured heavenly secret, it was outdated.
Other than the huge boost in power of obscured heavenly secret due to the qualitative change, there was another benefit, the amount of heaven path immortal materials needed to activate it had fallen greatly, by a total of eighty percent!
The reduction in consumption of heaven path immortal materials was very beneficial to Fang Yuan in his attempt to accumulate them.
Heaven path immortal materials were not easy to obtain.
Fang Yuan had only gotten a good opportunity recently when the two heavens were fusing.
In fact, the appearance of so many heaven path immortal materials was also thanks to the senseless Spectral Soul Demon Venerable. This was truly an extremely rare opportunity.
Rank nine heavenly secret Gu and rank nine obscured heavenly secret had many tactical implications to Fang Yuan.
This was an advancement!
If the advancement failed and Fang Yuan got exposed, he would get attacked by the two venerables.
It was clear from how Giant Sun Immortal Venerable got targeted by Star Constellation Immortal Venerable after he took rank nine light Gu.
She was very overbearing and showed a tough stance.
Eventually, she only gave up after Giant Sun Immortal Venerable brought Light Emperor into Longevity Heaven.
If Fang Yuan was exposed, everyone would see that he had two rank nine Immortal Gu!
He did not have an impregnable base like Longevity Heaven or Heavenly Court.
Once Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Giant Sun Immortal Venerable cooperated, they would be very terrifying!
Star Constellation Immortal Venerable’s wisdom path controlled certainty.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable’s luck path explored uncertainty.
The two were mutually conflicting, but if they worked together, they would complement each other perfectly. With the potential of such coordination, even Fang Yuan could not stop them.
After all, Fang Yuan had not created his own rank nine offensive method.
Even if Fang Yuan could stop them, the external situation of the contest of three venerables would start to emit pressure on him. He did not have enough strength to obliterate Longevity Heaven and Heavenly Court.
Giant Sun Immortal Venerable and Star Constellation Immortal Venerable could not be taken down, if they deepened their cooperation, it was very likely that they would become a huge hindrance to him.
One could say, if Fang Yuan was exposed, he would fall into an extremely passive state.
But the situation was fine now.
With rank nine obscured heavenly secret, he could stabilize the situation at the critical moment.
The refinement of rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu was not hard, but Fang Yuan still had to take a fatal risk to succeed.
He succeeded on his first attempt at refining it, he was quite fortunate.
This was the turning point of the contest of three venerables!
Right now, Fang Yuan’s foundation in heaven path was as such. He had heaven path grandmaster attainment level, various killer moves like heaven envies heroic geniuses, heavenly web protection veil, emotionless heaven and earth, heavenly summary earthly norm, obscured heavenly secret, and others, as well as Immortal Gu like Heavenly Web, Heavenly Secret, Heaven’s Envy, and Heavenly Birth.
He also had the truthful floating ice.
At this point, he had already unsealed over half of the truthful floating ice.
Worth noting was that after becoming a heaven path grandmaster, his speed of unsealing the truthful floating ice also became faster!
This was easily understood.
Fang Yuan’s heaven path attainment level was like a foundation, once it rose, he would be able to understand and comprehend the heaven path profundities within the truthful floating ice at a faster rate.
Back then during the battle in Crazed Demon Cave, Paradise Earth Immortal Venerable obtained the truthful floating ice and unsealed it rapidly, he almost became a heaven path venerable!
“However, my heaven path attainment level only rose to grandmaster after using more than half of the truthful floating ice. It will be too hard for me to reach great grandmaster using the remaining portion.”
The higher the cultivation level, the greater the difference between ranks.
This was the same for attainment level.
If half of the truthful floating ice could help Fang Yuan go from ordinary to grandmaster attainment level, then it would be very hard for the remaining half to elevate Fang Yuan to a great grandmaster.
Regardless, Fang Yuan was satisfied.
The truthful floating ice he gained from Crazed Demon Cave had been extremely useful to Fang Yuan.
Ignoring anything else, just the rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu recipe was something that did not originally exist in the world.
Fang Yuan knew clearly.
This Immortal Gu recipe was the research result of over a million years through the Crazed Demon formation that Limitless Demon Venerable created, using the chaos outside the world and rank nine derivation Gu as the core.
The concept was ahead of the entire world.
It was too hard to achieve it on his own.
Fang Yuan’s human path attainment level was not low, he was a grandmaster. But why did he not try to create rank six human path Immortal Gu recipes?
It was too hard.
Such an attempt would expend too much of his time, energy, resources, and manpower. In fact, success was not guaranteed.
In the current world, wild human path Immortal Gu were very rare.
Creating a rank six human path Immortal Gu recipe was making something that did not exist in the world, it was the development of human path beyond its current limit, it was also pushing the current world beyond its current boundary and limit.
Going from zero to one was like going from nothing to something, this process was very difficult.
But from one to two, the process was just quantitative growth, gradual development was possible with much lower difficulty.
Rank six human path Immortal Gu recipes were very hard to create, as for rank nine heavenly secret Immortal Gu’s recipe, the difficulty was countless
