n

nThe two had not seen each other for many years, so there was naturally a lot of small talk.

nShi Hao had watched the Fang brothers grow up, so he was very fond of them.

nAfter hearing that Fang Yuan was going to help him with the Song clan's goods, he was relieved but also a little worried.

n

"Second Young Master, do you know how many dangerous places you will have to go through on the way to the capital? Have you really made up your mind?

"

nHearing Shi Hao say this, Fang Yuan nodded firmly.

n

"Uncle, now that something has happened to the family, I have the responsibility as a member of the Fang clan to help overcome the difficulties.

"

nHearing this, Shi Hao couldn't help but fall silent. After a long time, he said,

"Second Young Master, you have just entered the secular world. I originally didn't want you to experience a bloodbath so early, but this old man's body is severely injured. I really have the heart but not the strength.

"

nAs he said this, he sighed,

"Forget it. Since you have already made up his mind, I can't stop you. Since you called me uncle, I'll give this to you.

"

nFollowing that, Shi Hao took out a wooden box from his pocket and placed it in Fang Yuan's palm.

nFang Yuan was stunned for a moment and opened the box.

nA small worm as black as ink appeared.

nThe system scan automatically activated.

nSoul Capture Gu

nLevel: Tier 1

nType: Support

nGrade: Bronze

nSkill: Soul Capturing

n...

nIt was actually a hatched larva?

nAnd it was Bronze grade?

nThis was not cheap.

nFang Yuan carefully looked at the details of the skill, and it was even more powerful.

nSoul Capturing : can reside in the nerve center of the opponent's brain, can be used to control the mind and control the opponent like a puppet. (cannot control if the opponent's spirit essence is higher than your own)

nThe amount of a Gu master's spirit essence is usually calculated according to the Gu worms in the Gu master's acupoints.

nThe more Gu worms, the higher the level, the higher the total spirit essence a Gu master has.

nFang Yuan's acupoints has a liquid spirit essence lake, so it can be said that at this point, he can control most Gu masters at the third layer of Foundation Establishment or even some weaker fourth layer Gu masters!

nIf he used the Soul Capturing Gu for himself, Fang Yuan would be invincible in his realm. This was something that many so-called geniuses could not do.

nHowever...

nIt was too valuable.

nSuch a Gu worm could not be appraised according to its grade.

nWith such a tyrannical skill, even a Silver rank Gu worm could not be exchanged for it.

nShi Hao saw the hesitation in Fang Yuan's eyes, and he smiled.

"Second Young Master, this is my intention as your uncle. The journey is dangerous, you must return alive.

"

nFang Yuan was moved.

"Then I will accept your request.

"

nShi Hao laughed heartily, explaining to him the matters he had to pay attention to on the way to the capital.

nFang Yuan listened attentively, memorizing the important points.

nIn this world, the threshold to become a Gu master was not high. As long as one opened their acupoints, they could nurture Gu worms and start their cultivation journey.

nThus, this also resulted in an extreme lack of cultivation resources.

nMost of the resources were concentrated in the hands of the large clans like the sects and the imperial family.

nThe rest of the lone cultivators could only explore the dangerous areas, risking their lives to find one or two low level Gu worms.

nHowever, there were many powerful mutated beasts in the wild. If they encountered them, they would die.

nThus, a portion of the lone cultivators gathered together to develop the wild areas, occupying the mountains as kings and controlling the local resources.

nNot only that, they would also rob passing caravans and Lone Gu masters, and their actions were similar to bandits.

nShi Hao traveled on the trade routes all year round. Those people knew of his strength and would not find trouble with him.

nFang Yuan was different. He was an unknown young man, and even though he was wearing the Gu Immortal Sect clothing, he was alone, so those thieves might not be afraid of him.

nThus, Fang Yuan had to pay attention to not only the wild beasts along the way, but also those malicious Gu masters.

n

"Second Young Master, about half a day away from cloud summit city, there is a dense forest. That is Black Wind Mountain Village's territory.

"

n

"They have many people, and they like to set up ambushes in the forest. Most of them are Qi Refinement Stage Gu masters, so they are nothing to be afraid of.

"

n

"But a few village leader level people still have some tricks. The weakest third village leader might only be at the third layer of the Foundation Establishment, but he is sinister and crafty, and he has many tricks up his sleeves. You have to be careful.

"

n

"And that Black Wind Mountain Village's first village leader, he is at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment. If you are not confident, do not clash with him.

"

nListening to Shi Hao's detailed explanation, Fang Yuan understood that he was really worried about his safety, so he nodded slowly.

n

"Uncle Shi Hao, I've remembered everything.

"

nHearing this, Fang Cheng laughed lightly.

"Uncle Shi Hao, you might not know this, but just now, when brother was at home, he beat that subordinate of the Song clan to a pulp with one move. Guess what Song Yuanhong said?

"

n

"Oh?

" Shi Hao's eyes lit up.

"Young Master, you'd better tell me directly. I'm too old to think.

"

nFang Cheng imitated Song Yuanhong's tone.

"Sigh, the second young master is a giant among men. Ordinary sixth layer Foundation Establishment experts can't even get close. Stop fighting.

"

n

"Haha, Uncle, you didn't see the way that one was beaten up. I was dying of laughter.

"

nFang Yuan glanced at his big brother. How could he not remember Song Yuanhong praising him as a giant among men?

nShi Hao was greatly astonished.

"Second Young Master was actually able to defeat someone in the sixth layer with the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm. This is... God has blessed the Fang clan.

"

nFang Cheng felt honored and said with a smile,

"So, that so-called Black Wind Mountain Village chief is probably just some small fry who won't be able to escape even one of my brother's moves.

"

n

"That person underestimated the enemy, and the cultivation method that my nephew learned was simply more overbearing. It was just a fluke.

"

nFang Yuan could not bear to hear it anymore, so he still explained, and then said,

"However, if my rod technique improves a little more, even if he was serious, he might not be able to stop me.

"

n

"Second Young Master is learning a rod technique?

" Shi Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard that.

n

"That's right.

"

n

"That's good!

" Fang Cheng smiled and said,

"Uncle Shi Hao is also someone who intimidates those rascals using the rod technique. Brother, if you don't mind, can you show Uncle the technique so he can get some pointers?

"

n

"No need, the sect's cultivation technique cannot be leaked.

"

nShi Hao hurriedly shook his head and said,

"Second Young Master can just demonstrate it.

"

nFang Yuan smiled slightly and directly handed the nine-turns rod technique book to him.

"We're family.

"

n

"Second Young Master...

"

nShi Hao's heart was burning, and his eyes were moist.

nFaced with Fang Yuan's trust, he was at a loss.

nIn the end, he took a deep breath to calm himself down and he opened the first page of the nine-turns rod technique.

nAfter looking at it for a while, he said in surprise,

"What an overbearing rod technique!

"

nHe flipped through it so quickly that he couldn't remember the contents. It seemed that he was just trying to understand the principles of this rod technique.

nSoon, he flipped to the fourth revolution section.

n

"Uncle, this is what I've been wondering about recently. I haven't been able to break through.

" Fang Yuan pointed out to him.

nShi Hao only took two glances before he started to explain with a smile.

nFang Yuan listened very seriously.

nAs Shi Hao explained, Fang Yuan seemed to have understood something in his mind.

nSoon, a bell rang.

nDing! Your nine-turns rod technique has received guidance from an expert and has successfully broken through to the fourth revolution!

nFinally!

nIt has broken through!
