Eternal Life through Drawing Lots

"What kind of Secret Technique is the Monarch cultivating?"

"I don't know. It's too mysterious. I can even faintly sense signs of 'yin and yang converging'."

"Don't ask what you shouldn't. Have you arranged the things I asked you to prepare?"

"Rest assured, Elder Ri. We know how to use information-path methods like spreading rumors."

"The Marquis of Celestial Night? Hmph, the Dark Dao school isn't as mysterious as people think..."

At this very moment, Elder Ri and the others gazed at the Monarch's tent, conversing rapidly.

They were all top figures in their respective orthodoxies, well-read in classics and strategies, and privy to many secrets.

But regarding the Fusang Divine Tree Sacred Body, they really didn't know much.

After all, even the Great Sun Golden Crow lineage was destroyed by the Vast Sea Venerable Emperor, to say nothing of the Fusang Divine Tree Lineage.

They were also aware that the great upheaval of heaven and earth back then had been specifically orchestrated by the Vast Sea Venerable Emperor to target the Great Sun Golden Crow lineage.

After all, once one reached the realm of a Venerable, their every move could be called a great upheaval of heaven and earth.

It was precisely because of this that the Fang Clan of the Changkong tribe gradually declined.

Who would have thought that in this generation, a peerless prodigy of unparalleled talent and brilliance would appear.

Fang Yang!

'Sigh, if only Fang Yang were a Great Sun Golden Crow, how wonderful would that be?' Elder Ri thought, his mind wandering.

...

BZZZ.

BZZZZZ.

Inside the First Monarch's tent, the orange-yellow divine light gradually faded, and the turmoil subsided.

Everything was slowly returning to calm, as if nothing had happened at all.

However, Yu Zither Immortal's drenched face, disheveled hair, and heavy panting proved that a great battle had just taken place, one that could be described as world-shaking and tumultuous.

"Fang. Yang." Yu Zither Immortal bit her red lip, her tone complex.

'I can't see through him.'

She was finding it harder and harder to see through Fang Yang.

'It was already like looking at him through clouds and mist, but now it feels like we're separated by an entire world.'

'It shouldn't be like this.'

She had clearly invited Fang Yang over because she thought she could get a clearer read on him.

"Shh, be quiet," Fang Yang said coldly, calmly cutting Yu Zither Immortal off.

This act instantly caused a wave of frustration to well up in Yu Zither Immortal's chest, making it heave like the ocean.

'Over the years, countless young geniuses have felt proud just for the chance to speak with me.'

'But before Fang Yang, the pride I held so dear is being shattered, piece by piece.'

'No, this is wrong, very wrong!'

'Nine-tenths of this is wrong.'

This way of interacting felt like she had returned to her youth, to a time when she was being hunted by her siblings.

It was dangerous, but it also made her long-dormant heart burst forth with a more intense vitality.

Staring at Fang Yang, she let her tongue dart out and lick her lips.

This was the sign of a predator about to strike!

...

At this moment, Fang Yang's gaze was still fixed on the empty space before him.

Under his watch, the orange-yellow treasure light abruptly split into two masses.

One mass flew toward him, and the other toward Yu Zither Immortal.

In his hand was a twig—a Fusang Branch.

In Yu Zither Immortal's hand was a feather—a Golden Crow feather.

At first, Fang Yang thought there had been a mistake.

But when he felt the intense desire from the Three-legged Crow phantom within him, he instantly understood that what he needed was indeed the Fusang Branch.

On the other side, Yu Zither Immortal held the Golden Crow feather, lost in thought.

[Fusang Branch]

The Fusang Branch, by its appearance, looked like a small piece of gold.

But the Fire Dao Rhyme and Wood Dao rhyme floating around it revealed its extraordinary nature, unlike ordinary gold.

This was a Tier Seven Sacred Material, greatly beneficial to both Wood Dao Cultivators and Fire Dao Practitioners.

Moreover, Fang Yang was absolutely certain that this Sacred Material could serve as the catalyst for condensing the Great Sun Golden Crow Dharma Aspect!

'Looked at this way, the fortune Yu Zither Immortal gifted him was quite valuable.'

...

WHOOSH! Fang Yang grabbed the Fusang Branch and began to refine it.

Visible to the naked eye, the Fusang Branch transformed into a stream of golden light that rushed toward his first aperture, making contact with the Three-legged Crow phantom.

The two merged like milk and water, quickly becoming one, indistinguishable from each other.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that the refinement level of his eyes had clearly increased by 5%.

'This trip was comparable to entering a Saint's dream realm. It was well worth it.'

The next moment, the pupils of Fang Yang's eyes constricted slightly.

Because the [Seek Fortune, Avoid Calamity] light cluster in his mind was flickering, transforming into text:

[With Fusang as the guide and stars as the source, the old dream of the Golden Crow is revealed. The path of intertwined opportunities forms on its own.]

[Supreme Fortune: Accept the pull and enter the bloodline dream. You will automatically leave the dream after one month at most. Succeed in the dream and obtain a Tier Seven opportunity. Greatly auspicious!]

[Upper-Middle Fortune: Accept the pull and enter the bloodline dream. You will automatically leave the dream after one month at most. Fail in the dream and obtain a Tier Five opportunity. Auspicious.]

[Middle Fortune: Reject the pull and do not enter the bloodline dream. Nothing gained, nothing lost. Neutral.]

...

'It's here.'

'The long-awaited Star Dream Realm has finally arrived.'

Last time, with the help of the Dream Emperor's phantom, he had successfully formed two aspects in one aperture and condensed a grade-A Three-legged Crow phantom.

This time, Fang Yang speculated internally.

'If I can really complete this successfully, I might be able to condense a Great Sun Golden Crow phantom, or even... a Great Sun Golden Crow Dharma Aspect!'

Only then would his first aperture be considered balanced.

At this moment, through the information transmitted by the Dream Emperor's phantom, Fang Yang understood that he didn't need to be in too much of a hurry to start.

"You will automatically leave the dream after one month at most."

'In other words, I can leave the dream smoothly before the month is up!?'

After some consideration, Fang Yang decided to return to the base of the Third Route Army before opening the Star Dream Realm.

'Because...'

As he thought this, he glanced at Yu Zither Immortal.

'After revealing her true nature to me, this woman has become completely brazen. She's just asking for a beating.'

...

"Ah Yang, are you leaving just like that?" Yu Zither Immortal's tone was mournful and pitiful.

At this moment, she was like a wife who could be summoned or dismissed at her husband's whim.

On the verge of tears, she looked so tender that it made one want to pull her into an embrace and comfort her.

But Fang Yang knew very well that this was all just an act.

"Useless thing," Fang Yang said expressionlessly, beginning to retract his aura as he prepared to leave.

"..." Yu Zither Immortal's lips twitched slightly.

'Fine, fine, you want to play for real, is that it?'

Yu Zither Immortal: "Mr. Fang, can you come back a little sooner?"

'Mr. Fang!?'

Fang Yang's heart skipped a beat.

'This woman is ruthless. To think she'd actually call me that.'

'If Xiaohui were here, she wouldn't stand a chance against her.'

'Wait, why am I thinking about having Xiaohui compete with her?'

Fang Yang forcefully pushed her away. "Is that any of your business? Just do your job!"

...

While Yu Zither Immortal was still staggering, Fang Yang had already vanished from the spot.

Once Fang Yang's figure was completely gone, Yu Zither Immortal dropped her smile.

Her gaze was calm.

Her eyes were as cold as winter ice.

Everything just now had been nothing more than an act.

She knew, and Fang Yang knew it too.

What annoyed her was that Fang Yang had actually gained the upper hand and was now dominating their relationship!

...

"Monarch, why are you so happy? Have you thought of a way to deal with the Marquis of Celestial Night?" Elder Ri asked, puzzled.

Yu Zither Immortal glanced back. "Oh? Do I look happy?"

Elder Ri nodded heavily, a look of honesty on his face.

Yu Zither Immortal stood with her hands behind her back and smiled faintly. "I was just thinking of a very interesting person. Extremely interesting, a truly fascinating character."
