Northern Plains, extreme north.
Lao Mo's expression was icy, his Aura like a rainbow.
Beside him, Hei Lou Lan, Fairy Li Shan, and Tai Bai Yun Sheng, who had successfully Undergone Tribulation, were astonished; a Rank Siximmortal zombie could display the battle strength of a mid-Rank 7.
The usage conditions for the Rank 7 Blood Path Immortal Gu were incredibly cheap; it only required enough Blood Qi to activate, no Rank 7immortal essence, or even a hundred Rank Six immortal essences. The more people killed, the greater its power—truly worthy of the Blood Path.
The Blood Path was viewed with caution by the world, but Fairy Li Shan didn't mind. As the third leader of Great Snow Mountain, she was a pure demonic cultivator and had seen many Blood Path Gu Immortals who were still living well.
She smiled and said, "Many thanks for your help this time."
"Hmph!" Lao Mo said displeasedly, "This time, the enemies far exceeded expectations. I demand a large amount of compensation."
Fairy Li Shan agreed, and then the group quickly withdrew to avoid being found again by those ten mysterious Gu Immortals.
Afterward, Lao Mo returned to Fox Immortal Blessed Land, preparing to face the invasion of Central Continent's Immortal Crane Sect. He decided to borrow a helper from the White-haired Earth Spirit, using military might to intimidate the other party into negotiations.
Lang Ya Blessed Land.
Huang Ting sat cross-legged on the edge of the Ninth Rank Wisdom Gu, basking in the light of Wisdom, meditating with his eyes closed. A wisp of Old Fang's Aura was left in the Immortal Gu formation, simulated to deceive the Wisdom Gu, so his true self didn't need to be present.
As soon as Lao Mo arrived, he awoke, observing him with a probing gaze. The Rank 7 immortal gu house, Bearing Luck Cauldron, concealed within the Luck auspicious cloud above his head, trembled, activating the Luck Investigation killer move.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
His vision suddenly cleared. The thick black coffin Luck above Lao Mo's head had vanished without a trace, replaced by dense crimson clouds, like Mount Tai pressing down, displaying a blood-light color. As they wriggled, various wild beasts emerged.
Although Huang Ting was not clear about Lao Mo's Luck in the original timeline, this scene was clearly extraordinary, equivalent to the great Luck of a Rank 7 Peak.
One must know that this was without the premise of Han Li's shared Luck. With only Hong Yi from Central Continent and Ye Fan from Southern Border supporting him, could he truly sustain such a phenomenon?
Immediately, Huang Ting used the records from the Sentient Luck True Inheritance to further judge and carefully distinguish. There were only two lines of shared Luck, leading into the ethereal, originating from Central Continent and Southern Border, with the number of people sharing Luck being consistent.
The scenes of transforming beasts and Mount Tai pressing down indicated attainments in Transformation Dao and Strength Path, while the blood-light color... Huang Ting's expression changed, his heart surprised: "Blood Sea True Inheritance?! No wonder!"
Only the Blood Sea True Inheritance could greatly increase Lao Mo's Luck. Luck always changed based on strength; if his main body's strength reached Rank 7, it would be no weaker than the Luck brought by Han Li.
He pondered for a moment. If nothing unexpected happened, Lao Mohad obtained that Blood Qi True Inheritance from Western Desert.
"What a pity, I could also use the Blood Path."
Huang Ting remained expressionless, not taking this matter to heart. A mere Rank 7 Immortal Gu was still a hundred and eight thousand li away from him. He already had a dozen Rank 7 Immortal Gu. What made him more vigilant was the script subtly altered by Reverend Heaven's Will.
Lao Mo was currently arguing and negotiating with the White-haired Earth Spirit, back and forth, trying to call for reinforcements, unaware that his true situation was completely seen through.
Huang Ting had no interest in understanding this; he was immersed in the deduction of killer moves and Immortal Gu Recipes. The White-haired Earth Spirit possessed eight Ancient Desolate Beasts as its foundation, while he himself had nearly twenty Ancient Desolate Beasts, and hundreds more Ancient Desolate Beasts and Desolate Beasts combined.

Several days passed in a flash.
By the time Lao Mo successfully borrowed reinforcements and intimidated the Immortal Crane Sect's arrivals, an unexpected event occurred. As the Immortal Crane Sect Gu Immortals were leaving, they were ambushed by Shadow Sect's personnel, and the Immortal Crane Gu Immortals almost died.
In reality, Shadow Sect had long known Lao Mo's identity and background. They wanted to throw out this chess piece to attract the attention of the Central Continent's immortal sects, frame Lao Mo, and ensure Soul Shaking Mountain was not lost. However, the Immortal Crane Sect people managed to escape.
In Northern Plains, Shadow Sect's people also began to act. Hei Cheng's new wife, Jiang Jue, was looking for Qin Baisheng, intending to awaken his memories, return his split soul to its place, and once again preside over the overall situation in Northern Plains.
Lao Mo was unaware of all this.
Currently, after Lao Mo dealt with the Immortal Crane Sect, he logged into Treasure Yellow Heaven and only then learned about the Yun Meng Auction House. He had originally planned to look for two Opportunities he remembered from his previous life—Seven Stars Child Grotto-heaven and the Legacy in the underground ditch of the Northern Plains Zombie Alliance—but now he decided to participate in the auction.
"It's good that I have nine Immortal Gu on me, most of which I don't need. The burden of feeding them is immense. It's most suitable to trade them for Strength Path Immortal Gu."
Lao Mo was slightly pleased, then sighed: "Who is this White-Eyebrowed Ancestor? I never heard of him in my previous life. With True Yang Building's collapse, the situation in Northern Plains became a mess, and the advantage of foresight completely disappeared."
In Lang Ya Blessed Land, Huang Ting used the killer move Crimson Star Patrol Heaven, continuously observing the situation in the Five Regions, closely monitoring Shadow Sect's actions, and pondering in his heart.
At this moment, it was hard to say whether Spectral Soul knew the news that he had successfully created the Supreme Immortal Fetus and Fang Laomo's Rebirth five hundred years ago in his previous life. It was ambiguous.
The living Spectral Soul had found the will of Red Lotus in the River of Time, learned about the grand plan to destroy Fate Gu and the information about the fated person. However, the Spectral Soul who became a Venerable at that time was incredibly arrogant, believing he could break Fate by himself.
Facts proved that he was half successful. In the five hundred years of his previous life, he refined the Supreme Immortal Fetus Gu, not only Heaven-Defyingly resurrecting and returning, but also possessing monstrous demonic might, his shadow covering the Gu World.
The reason it was only half successful was because he couldn't destroy Fate Gu. As long as Fate Gu existed, the Heavenly Dao's blockade would remain, making it impossible to Break through to Rank 9. No matter how strong a Rank 8 was, he was still a Rank 8, let alone achieving eternal life.
Red Lotus, however, glimpsed the other half of the puzzle for successfully destroying Fate Gu from this, sought out Star Constellationand Heaven's Will, and together they reversed time.
"So, there's a high probability that Spectral Soul didn't know until the Supreme Immortal Fetus was seized. The existence of Spring Autumn Cicada also made him realize his successes and failures in his previous life, summarize his experiences, and push things forward, simply letting Shadow Sect ally with Lao Mo."
Huang Ting pondered, thinking about the possibility of seizing the Supreme Immortal Fetus Gu. The probability could be said to be eighty to ninety percent: finding Luo Po Valley, inheriting the Heaven Stealing [Ghostly Stealth] killer move, deceiving Spectral Soul, and occupying the Supreme Immortal Fetus Gu one step ahead.
He didn't even need this killer move. With his own strength, dealing with a Spectral Soul severely weakened after battle was more than enough.
Didn't Dragon Duke manage to capture Spectral Soul alive?
However, his current main body had accumulated two million Dao Marks, countless wealth from Human Sovereign Grotto-heaven, immortal gu houses, Heaven and Earth Secret Realms, Immortal Guformations, and the Human Ancestor Body. It would take an unknown amount of time to develop again if he exchanged it for the Supreme Immortal Fetus Gu; it was truly unnecessary.
Moreover, taking the Supreme Immortal Fetus Gu would mean being at the forefront, stepping onto the cutting edge of the era's tide.
"Dream Dao is inherently an invincible path, why borrow the SupremeGu again?"
Huang Ting murmured, deciding to let nature take its course. His own body was quite good; there was no need to change to another one.
However, Spectral Soul's Gu refining process should not be missed. He could absorb his techniques and observe the Immortal Gu Recipes, which he could recreate at any time.
The only regret was that Luo Po Valley and the Heaven Stealing True Inheritance could not be obtained; they had to be left for Lao Mo, otherwise, the attempt to seize the Supreme Immortal Fetus Gu would fail.
Both of those were good things.
