In his previous life, Fang Yuan possessed this Supreme Immortal Aperture. Through diligent planting and cultivation, raising exotic beasts, he had turned it into a place rich in resources and brimming with vitality.
However, when the world of his previous life collapsed and perished, this Supreme Immortal Aperture had naturally been destroyed along with Fang Yuan's physical body.
Yet after Fang Yuan was reborn into this Douluo Continent and obtained his seventh soul ring, bringing his Supreme Immortal Embryo martial soul to its complete state, this Supreme Immortal Aperture had unexpectedly returned to his hands!
Of course, all the resources he had cultivated in his previous life, as well as the exotic beasts and variant humans raised within the immortal aperture, were completely gone.
But Fang Yuan did not care in the slightest. He only had to start over.
The road ahead may be as hard as iron, but now he would stride forward from the beginning.
Fang Yuan's consciousness roamed through the space for a while. After sensing its condition, he had already formed a plan.
The flow of time within this Supreme Immortal Aperture differed from that of the outside world, with the ratio roughly one to sixty.
In other words, one day outside equaled sixty days within the Supreme Immortal Aperture.
His consciousness had remained in the immortal aperture for quite some time, yet only an instant had passed outside.
Fang Yuan understood. Everything about it was exactly the same as the Supreme Immortal Aperture from his previous life.
Since that was the case, he was already intimately familiar with this space and had no need to explore it again.
Thus, Fang Yuan withdrew his consciousness and returned to the outside world.
Before him still lay Sunset Forest, as well as the corpse of the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King beneath his feet.
Looking at the tiger corpse before him, Fang Yuan had a thought and decided to conduct an experiment.
"Store!"
With a movement of Fang Yuan's divine sense, the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King's corpse vanished from before him. Then, immersing his mind within the Supreme Immortal Aperture, Fang Yuan saw the tiger corpse in a certain place in the Northern Plains.
It seemed he could still store items or people within the Supreme Immortal Aperture.
"Although the Northern Plains are extremely cold and this tiger corpse will not spoil easily here, it would still be better kept in a storage soul tool."
With that thought, Fang Yuan released the tiger corpse again.
By then, a faint layer of white frost had already formed over the White-Eyed Demon Tiger King's corpse.
After examining it and finding nothing unusual, Fang Yuan stored it within his storage soul tool.
Only then did his mind gradually settle.
The seventh soul ring had brought him far too many pleasant surprises. Even with Fang Yuan's temperament, his emotions could not help but stir.
The appearance of the Supreme Immortal Aperture would be an enormous help to him. With it, Fang Yuan effectively possessed an extremely convenient logistical base. As long as he developed the immortal aperture into a small world capable of sustaining its own cycle, he would be able to become self-sufficient.
The scale of such a project was considerable, but once completed, the benefits would also be immense.
Now that he no longer needed to raise and refine Gu, Fang Yuan did not need to deliberately cultivate certain plants or raise particular beasts within his Supreme Immortal Aperture.
Fang Yuan planned to find people willing to enter the Supreme Immortal Aperture to pioneer and live there, borrowing their strength to help him develop it. Otherwise, without the methods of his previous life, how long would it take to achieve his goal through his own strength alone?
The outside world might be wonderful, but not everyone could thrive in it. For some people, Fang Yuan's Supreme Immortal Aperture might even count as a paradise removed from the world.
Letting out a long breath, Fang Yuan organized his thoughts and digested the surprises brought by the Supreme Immortal Embryo martial soul. Only then did he identify the direction and head back toward the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
When he returned to the mountain peak where the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was located, Dugu Bo and another young woman were already waiting at the summit.
Fang Yuan had spent some time searching for a soul beast, making Dugu Bo wait for a while.
Upon seeing Fang Yuan, Dugu Bo finally let out a great sigh of relief.
Fang Yuan was now tied to his granddaughter's life. Even an old man as steady-minded as Dugu Bo could not help feeling anxious and uneasy over it.
When he had returned with his granddaughter and failed to find Fang Yuan, although his disciple had said that Fang Yuan had gone to hunt a soul ring, Dugu Bo could not help but worry.
Now that he saw Fang Yuan return, Dugu Bo hurriedly went forward as though afraid Fang Yuan might disappear.
"Kid Fang, you're finally back. I brought my granddaughter here, so hurry up and mutate her martial soul!"
Dugu Bo's tone was somewhat urgent. A problem that had troubled him for years could finally be resolved, and his granddaughter could avoid the suffering of poison backlash. Naturally, he was anxious.
Fang Yuan waved his hand and smiled. "Old Poison, show a little restraint. I preferred that cold and aloof look you had at first. Go back to being like that."
As he spoke, his gaze shifted to the young woman standing beside Dugu Bo.
Unlike Dugu Bo's emerald-green hair, the young woman's hair was a light purple, hanging neatly at the level of her earlobes. However, her emerald-green eyes, identical to Dugu Bo's, still proved their relationship.
The young woman looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, yet there was no trace of youthful awkwardness in her figure. As she walked, her waist swayed slightly, supple as though boneless. Her snake-type martial soul had likely granted her remarkable flexibility.
As Dugu Bo approached, the young woman followed him to Fang Yuan. However, upon seeing Fang Yuan up close, her expression became somewhat blank.
Dugu Bo said from the side, "This is my granddaughter, Dugu Yan. Kid Fang, I'll leave my granddaughter's martial soul to you."
Fang Yuan smiled faintly. "Of course. Didn't we agree on this before? Dugu Yan, sit cross-legged first and take this pill."
Hearing her name, Dugu Yan seemed to snap out of it, raising her head with an "Ah."
Usually quite bold and headstrong, she somehow felt unable to act naturally around the young man before her.
Seeing Fang Yuan extend his hand toward her, a round pill resting in his palm, Dugu Yan finally reacted and took the pill.
Using two fair, slender fingers to take the pill from Fang Yuan's hand, Dugu Yan carefully avoided touching his hand, though a faint flush had already appeared on her face.
Then she turned to glance at Dugu Bo. Seeing the encouraging expression on her grandfather's face, Dugu Yan sat cross-legged and placed the pill in her mouth.
As her soul power circulated and her martial soul possessed her body, an emerald-green diamond-shaped scale appeared on her forehead, giving her an enchanting appearance.
Fang Yuan sensed the information coming from within Dugu Yan's body. Once the pill's medicinal power spread, he repeated the same process he had used to help Dugu Bo before and activated his third soul skill, Mutation.
The light of the soul skill shone upon her, and a change immediately occurred.
A stream of emerald-green air emerged from the diamond-shaped scale at the center of Dugu Yan's forehead and slowly circled around her body.
From the outside, the young woman's figure within appeared hazy and indistinct. Yet judging from the outline, it was undeniably the same slender, tall figure as before.
