A loud boom rang out, but the explosion's power was not great.
Starlight filled the sky like fluttering butterflies, drifting gracefully through the secret chamber.
Yet beneath such beauty, Fang Yuan's expression was extremely ugly.
"Failed again. This time, I did not even reach one-third of the progress in refining the Star Thought Immortal Gu..." Fang Yuan sighed. With a sweep of his long sleeve, the clouds dispersed and the rain vanished; the starlight abruptly disappeared without a trace, and the vast secret chamber returned to the calm it had held before the Gu refinement.
This was a secret chamber of the Northern Plains Corpse Alliance branch.
Here, Fang Yuan had obtained an ample supply of immortal materials, so he had tried refining Gu once more—only to taste the bitterness of failure again.
"Although I used the Time Luck Immortal Dao Killer Move before every refinement attempt, its effect was truly small. As for connecting luck, I have no suitable target. So be it. I have put on enough of a show; it is time to try entering the Earth Trench and taking that inheritance."
Of course, Fang Yuan wanted to obtain the inheritance as early as possible, but many things could not be rushed.
If he did not refine the Star Thought Immortal Gu and instead focused solely on entering the Earth Trench, that would be far too obvious and deliberate.
Others would see through him, so naturally that would not do.
Although Fang Yuan had infiltrated the Northern Plains Corpse Alliance, his current problem was that he was not free. He was tightly guarded and heavily protected by two immortal zombies.
Fang Yuan understood that this naturally also meant they were monitoring and watching over him.
After all, Fang Yuan had failed to refine Immortal Gu many times
