The extreme happiness did not make Fang Yuan's thoughts become fuzzy. He quickly regained his consciousness, and started to think about the effects that the Spring And Autumn Cicada could bring to him,
"The ability of the Spring And Autumn Cicada is rebirth. However, right now, it is fatigued to the max. A single touch could already kill it.. But it is still a level six Gu; I can totally take advantage of its breath. This would not cause any damage to its body."
"Haha." Thinking like that, Fang Yuan retrieved his mind and opened his eyes.
He only saw the Wine Gu which was floating in front of him, was s.h.i.+vering while being covered and oppressed by the Bronze Primeval Essence.
Just now, because of its desire to live, it had bet everything on a single throw, resulted in its intent in easily being smashed by the Spring And Autumn Cicada. Therefore, he was severely hurt because of that. Its willpower right now was not even one-hundredth of what it had been before.
"Spring And Autumn Cicada." As Fang Yuan's intent slightly shook, a whiff of Spring And Autumn Cicada's breath drifted out.
As the oppressing breath was put on the Wine Gu's body, the Wine Gu instantly calmed down. It did not move the slightest bit, as though it was dead. Its remaining willpower could feel the breath from the Spring And Autumn Cicada. Like a mouse that encountered a cat, under the intimidating force, it curled up into a ball, and did not dare to move.
Fang Yuan laughed out loud. Taking advantage of the situation, he urged his Primeval Essence.
Initially, when using the Bronze Primeval Essence to cultivate, it could hardly expand little by little. However, right now, Fang Yuan's Bronze Primeval Essence marched straight into it and rushed down a thousand li. Basically, it did not meet any obstacles.
The bronze color on the Wine Gu's body quickly expanded. In a few blinks, it had turned the fat white pearl Wine Gu into a green Gu.
Being on the decline, the last remaining willpower of the Wine Gu had finally vanished into the air after being attacked by Fang Yuan's intent.
Just like that, he had finished cultivating the Gu!
Compared to the hards.h.i.+p of pa.s.sing over mountain ridges at the start, the refining process right now was like drinking a gulp of water with ease.
A magical and amiable feeling connected Fang Yuan and the Wine Gu.
Refining Gu was as a part of Fang Yuan's body. When Fang Yuan told it to huddle, it would do so immediately. As he commanded it to curl up, it would become a wonton-shaped. It was just like moving a fingertip.
As Fang Yuan retrieved his Primeval Essence, the Wine Gu then returned to his white fat appearance.
Afterward, he baselessly jumped up and entered Fang Yuan's vain aperture in a blink. Once it reached the middle of the vain aperture, it slightly slid over the Spring And Autumn Cicada, then penetrated into his Bronze Primeval Sea. On the sea surface, it recklessly stretched out its body, casually wringing its fat waist, feeling as comfortable as bathing in a warm bubble bath.
"With the Spring And Autumn Cicada, I should change my plan." Fang Yuan retrieved his consciousness from the Primeval Sea, and then took out that Moonlight Gu.
He did the same, releasing a beam of Spring And Autumn Cicada's breath and putting it on the Moonlight Gu.
Feeling the breath of the Spring And Autumn Cicada, the Moonlight Gu's willpower immediately surrendered. It was so scared that it could only retract its head as much as possible into its body.
Fang Yuan's surging Primeval Essence was pouring down, in a blink, it had turned the Moonlight Gu into a green jade.
Finally, as his intent slightly shook, the willpower of the Moonlight Gu was easily strangled.
Afterward, he retrieved his Primeval Essence as the Moonlight Gu also returned to its normal transparent crystal blue appearance.
He retrieved the Moonlight Gu.
This time, it did not enter his vain aperture but directly fell onto Fang Yuan's forehead, forming a faint blue crescent moon imprint.
From the time when he started refining the Moonlight Gu to the end, it was not over five minutes.
Such fast speed, compared to the hards.h.i.+ps at the beginning, would create an extremely clear difference.
Moreover, not only was the refining pace fast, but also the Primeval Essence that he had wasted, was incredibly little.
These days, when Fang Yuan cultivated the Wine Gu, he spent about six Primeval Stones. However, tonight, he did not waste any Primeval Stones. Instead, the bottom of his Bronze Primeval Sea could be seen right now.
"Haha, having the Spring And Autumn Cicada in my hand is truly like having G.o.d's aid! From now on, with the oppressing breath of it, any level one Gu will become easy as flipping a hand. Although I am just a grade C apt.i.tude, I also do not need the help from Primeval Stones. The difference from now and then really is like heaven and earth apart."
Fang Yuan was triumphal. Right now, he was like seeing the blue sky after it had pushed aside the gray clouds.
Although the Spring And Autumn Cicada was extremely fatigued right now, it was still a level six Gu. It was like a tiger that had fallen down but still reserved its prestige, or a rotten s.h.i.+p that still had three-pound nails, just depended on its breath had become a big motivation for Fang Yuan's cultivation later on.
At present.
The moon was s.h.i.+ning while the stars were spa.r.s.e outside the window. As the moonlight pierced through the window, it shone upon Fang Yuan's countenance.
"Initially, I thought I would not be able to get in first place, but unexpectedly, a plot twist has happened. Time will not wait for me. Right now, I need to go to the schoolhouse to receive my reward for being the first one!" The starlight inside Fang Yuan's eyes was sparkling.
As his mind slightly shook, the figure of the Spring And Autumn Cicada inside his vain aperture immediately disappeared, entering its dormant state. He then called out the Wine Gu who was hiding in a corner on his bedhead.
This was to prevent the schoolhouse's unnecessary inspection.
A second later, at the schoolhouse.
The schoolhouse's Elder was already deep asleep. However, while he was sleeping, he vaguely heard some knocking sounds.
Being awakened by those knocking sounds, he opened his pair of eyes, unhappily said, "It's midnight, who is outside?"
A respectful answer immediately resounded from outside, "Elder Master, there is a disciple this year. He said he had succeeded refining the Moonlight Gu. You have ordered, whenever the first person appears, no matter what time it is, we have to inform you immediately."
"Oh... So there is someone like that." The schoolhouse's Elder frowned. He stood up and left his bed, wearing his clothes while asking, "Which disciple can be first this year? Is it Gu Yue Fang Zheng?"
His subordinate replied from outside, "It seems so. As soon as I heard the news, I came to report to master immediately. It looks like he is from the Fang family."
"A, it should be the time he comes up anyway." The schoolhouse's Elder softly laughed, muttered, "Except for this grade A apt.i.tude genius, who else could it be? Even if a grade B disciple were using Primeval Stones, they would still be lower by one level. If not, then why should apt.i.tude be so important."
As he finished talking, he opened the door and stepped out.
Outside, his subordinate respectfully retreated two steps, kowtowed then added, "Master is right."
In the hall, bright s.h.i.+ning light coming from more than ten burning candles were illuminating the whole s.p.a.ce.
The person who received Fang Yuan had now wanted to ask for more details from him. Under the candlelight, bewilderment covered his visage, "Wait, what did you just say? You are telling me you are Gu Yue Fang Yuan, not Gu Yue Fang Zheng?"
Fang Yuan nodded. Right then, the Elder of the schoolhouse stepped in.
Fang Yuan and the receiver simultaneously turned and showed their respects.
As the schoolhouse's Elder looked at Fang Yuan, smiles were constantly beaming on his face. He stepped up to stand in front of Fang Yuan, then friendly patted his shoulder, "Good job, Gu Yue Fang Zheng. You did not disappoint me. You really are a grade A apt.i.tude genius! No matter how much effort those friends at the same age with you who are at grade B or C, they still cannot be compared to you. Ha ha ha."
Fang Yuan and Fang Zheng were twin brothers. Their appearances were identical, that was why the schoolhouse's Elder mistook.
Fang Yuan was neither servile nor overbearing, he gently stepped back one step, avoiding the Elder's hand on his shoulder. He looked at the schoolhouse's Elder, putting his hands behind his back and casually smiling, "Honorable Elder, you've mistaken. Junior is Gu Yue Fang Yuan. Gu Yue Fang Zheng is my didi."
"What?" The schoolhouse's Elder slightly opened his mouth, a gleam of surprise appeared on his countenance.
He confusingly looked at Fang Yuan while furrowed his brows. After several breaths, he started to talk, "You are Gu Yue Fang Yuan?"
"Yes, Junior is." Fang Yuan replied.
"You refined the Moonlight Gu?" The schoolhouse's Elder was dumbfounded inside. He widened his eyes staring at the crescent moon imprinted on Fang Yuan's head. The light in his eyes was s.h.i.+ning brilliantly. It seemed he still asked even though he had already known.
"Yes, there is something like that." Fang Yuan replied again.
"If so, you are the first one?" The schoolhouse's Elder was quite dumbstruck, but one could not blame him. Since the situation right now had surpa.s.sed his expectations.
One must know that he had had plentiful of experience after dozen of years in taking charge of this schoolhouse. He had encountered a grade C apt.i.tude receiving the first rank, but it would definitely not be this soon. Not to mention, this time, there were also disciples at the same age who were grade A or B apt.i.tude.
"If no one is earlier than me..." Fang Yuan acted like he was considering, then he stroked his nose while continue saying, "Then it seems like so."
The schoolhouse's Elder, "...."
