When they came near the ten heavenly pillars, the number of monks they saw increased dramatically.
Along the way, even if all the monks Gu Qing saw were put together, they were not as good as one-tenth of the total of the monks near the ten pillars.
There are no less than a hundred monks near these ten pillars!
Judging from their attire, most of these monks should be monks from the five forces that control the Zichen Secret Realm - the robes worn by these monks all bear the special symbols of their respective sects.
The remaining small parts are all dressed in different clothes.
Not just what you wear.
Among the small number of remaining monks, in addition to the human monks, there are actually a group of strange-looking humanoid creatures that are five or six feet tall, and four demon cultivators surrounded by demonic aura!
Gu Qing glanced around, his eyes moving slightly.
He had already seen Lin Yan sitting cross-legged and adjusting his breath under the slightly shorter Tianzhu on the left and on top of the thick trunk of an ancient tree!
Lin Yan also seemed to be aware of Gu Qing's gaze.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Qing.
'I only saw this person, but not Xuanyunzi... Also, Xuanyunzi was only at the first level of foundation building. It was normal for him to fall into the Zichen Secret Realm. It's just a pity that this person can't be killed with his hands to solve the problem. Enmity from the past. Gu Qing's face was expressionless and he looked away calmly.
Gu Qing looked at the other monks present.
Just like Gu Qing.
Many monks in the field also paid a lot of attention to Gu Qing, the newly arrived fifth-level foundation-building monk.
At the moment, although the competition for a total of thirty seats in the Purple Light Pool on the ten pillars has not yet begun, almost all the monks in the Zichen Secret Realm have gathered here and spontaneously formed three-person teams. Maintain a delicate balance.
Although a monk at the fifth level of foundation building cannot break the balance among the top groups of monks competing for seats on the three highest pillars, but for those competing for seats on the seven shorter pillars, other For the team of monks, it is already a force that can tip the balance!
'Although there are many monks here, no one has climbed onto the Tianzhu... It seems that there are some restrictions on the top of the Tianzhu.
'So many monks gathered here, but there was no conflict. It seems that the monks must have formed some kind of tacit understanding... Gu Qing just looked at it briefly and quickly looked away.
Among the cultivators in the field, there are nearly thirty late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators alone, and among these thirty late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, six have reached the false elixir realm of Foundation Establishment Dzogchen!
Among the cultivators, Gu Qing saw more than one familiar face.
For example, Fang Xin and Murong Qing.
At this moment, the cultivation of Fang Xin and Murong Qing has improved a lot. At this moment, the two girls are standing together with more than a dozen Liuli Palace monks, including Fang Xin's Senior Sister Huo.
Found Gu Qing arriving.
Fang Xin, Murong Qing, and Senior Sister Huo's expressions changed in different ways at the same time - Fang Xin seemed to be relieved, waved to Gu Qing, and looked at Gu Qing with bright eyes. Murong Qing, on the other hand, smiled lightly and just nodded slightly towards Gu Qing.
As for Senior Sister Huo, whom Gu Qing had just met when he entered the Zichen Secret Realm, she actually looked at Gu Qing with great interest.
Gu Qing did not respond to Fang Xin, but just nodded back to Murong Qing.
Among the more familiar faces to Gu Qing in the field, in addition to Fang Xin, Murong Qing, and Fang Xin's senior sister Huo, there were more than one monk who had met Gu Qing when he was on his way, and Among them were a male cultivator in gray who was one of the few cultivators at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, and a female cultivator in red who was at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment!
Upon realizing that these two people were here, Gu Qing smiled bitterly to himself.
However, Gu Qing also knew it in his heart.
Since he is determined to come here, he will definitely meet these two people again!
Although he was helpless in this regard, he didn't have much fear towards these two people. At that moment, his strength surged, the injuries of the ancient demon's body had also healed, and he even went one step further.
, if these two people want to seek revenge, they can just come here, which just proves how far his current strength is!
Gu Qing's figure was tense, and he slowly came to the base of an uninhabited ancient tree despite the attention of the cultivators in the field.
He stepped lightly on his feet and flew into the air. He came to the canopy of the ancient tree as silently as a fallen leaf and sat on the trunk of the tree.
This ancient tree was not far from Lin Yan, only about 13 to 40 feet away. From a distance, Gu Qing could sense Lin Yan's vague gaze, but he did not communicate with Lin Yan.
Conversation via sound transmission will cause fluctuations in the soul.
The monk in the field had hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and his soul power was infinitely stronger than his own. He didn't have any special secret method to cover up the fluctuations of his soul, so he chose not to communicate with Lin Yan for the time being.
Lin Yan could probably guess what Gu Qing was thinking.
As an elder disciple of the Hanhai Loose Cultivator Alliance, Lin Yan is by no means a mediocre person. Just like the team of monks he is currently in, the other two are all cultivators at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. Only he has just broken through to the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. Heavy, but he can still interact with the two of them equally.
"Fellow Taoist Lin Yan, what do you think of this new monk?"
There was a message coming from not far away from Lin Yan. It was a cultivator who looked like an old man with black spots on his face. His cultivation had reached the sixth level of foundation building. It seemed that he was only one step away from breaking through to the seventh level of foundation building. .
Lin Yan's eyes were slightly solemn, knowing that his repeated looks at Gu Qing had attracted the attention of this octogenarian-looking monk.
Don't look at this monk who looks like an old man. He is so old and even has dark spots on his face. This is just a superficial deterioration caused by the skills this person has practiced. This person is one of the five sects who control the Zichen Secret Realm, and has the same relationship with the Blood Yang Demon. The monks of the Netherworld Demon Sect, who have the same name as their sect, practice techniques that require absorbing thousands of dead energy into the body, thus causing the skin to decay.
"Fellow Daoist Gan, according to Lin, this person is not easy to deal with." Lin Yan responded sternly, "The fluctuations of spiritual energy around this person are very strange, and he seems to be urging the exercises all the time. At the same time, he is able to move freely, and he obviously knows how to use distractions for multiple purposes."
After hearing what Lin Yan said, the monk who looked like an octogenarian fell silent for a moment, then put on a charming smile on his face and said:
"This man has a strong vitality, which is really the only thing Gan has seen in his life."
It is quite close to the three tallest pillars.
On top of a bare rocky mountain.
Three figures are standing or sitting, two of them are fake alchemy monks who have completed the foundation building process, and one of them is wearing a gray robe and is at the ninth level of foundation building.
Reaching the nine levels of foundation building to perfection will be the realm of false elixir.
Obviously, although this gray-clothed monk has reached the ninth level of foundation building, he still has a long way to go before he can reach the completion of the ninth level.
Just when Gu Qing arrived.
The gray-clothed monk stood aside with his hands behind his hands, looking up at the purple stars in the sky. His lazy expression changed slightly. His gaze shifted and fell on Gu Qing. It wasn't until Gu Qing found an ancient tree to rest on that he withdrew his gaze and quietly looked towards The female cultivator in red glanced at the direction.
"Why, Junior Brother Zhao knows this person?"
On the side, an elegant male cultivator also dressed in gray smiled.
The gray-clothed monk surnamed Zhao, named Zhao Changkong, is one of the five forces that control the Zichen Secret Realm. He is a monk from the Beimo Sect, which is the same sect as the Liuli Palace and Tianchi Sword Sect. Sitting cross-legged next to him is also dressed in gray. The elegant male cultivator in the clothes is a fellow disciple of Zhao Changkong.
"Earlier, this person robbed the crazy woman from Tianchi Sword Sect of a bag of Life Creation Pills, and also spanked that crazy woman..." Zhao Changkong curled up the corner of his mouth and responded in a very brisk tone.
"ah?"
The elegant male cultivator was slightly startled, his expression a little dull.
"This person is so audacious! However, with his cultivation at the fifth level of foundation building, how can he escape from the mad woman and survive to this day?" He immediately replied with some confusion.
Zhao Changkong turned his head and looked at the purple star in the sky again, that is, the Purple Star: "This person has understood the divine will quite well, and has cultivated a wonderful escape method that can control the wind and escape far away."
The elegant male cultivator glanced at Gu Qing, if
Nodding thoughtfully.
"Even so, if this person doesn't leave quickly, he will probably die at the hands of the crazy woman from Chi Jian Sect that day during the melee." He shook his head lightly and said decisively.
While the elegant male cultivator was having a conversation with Zhao Changkong, the other cultivator in the fake alchemy realm next to them remained silent and did not say a word.
This man looks middle-aged, with sallow cheeks and a wine flask hanging from his waist. His expression is a bit sluggish, and his eyes seem to be hazy and drunk.
He just casually glanced at Gu Qing, who was talking with the two people beside him, then picked up the wine bottle and took a deep sip into his mouth. The corners of his still-wine-stained mouth grinned, revealing a mysterious smile.
After closing his eyes for a long time, Gu Qing opened his eyes helplessly.
He first glanced at the few monks who had just arrived.
Among these people, the leading pair of male and female monks, the male cultivator's cultivation aura is at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, and the female cultivator is at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment.
And this female cultivator at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment was the same strong female cultivator who used the silver-white double hammer spiritual weapon that Gu Qing had seen before!
After these people arrived, a group of monks carrying swords on their backs greeted them. Gu Qing guessed that these monks carrying swords on their backs should be cultivators of the Tianchi Sword Sect, and the source of his helplessness was these suspected members of the Tianchi Sword Sect. Among the monks, the red-dressed female cultivator at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.
Gu Qing has been here for nearly an hour.
And in this hour.
The female cultivator in red stared at him for at least half an hour, and for the other half of the hour, she also locked his energy invisibly!
If Gu Qing hadn't clearly known that he had a grudge against this woman, and the grudge was not shallow, he would probably have thought that this woman was attracted to him.
'Having an encounter with this female cultivator in red is unavoidable.
'How to help Lin Yan, we can only adapt to circumstances.
Gu Qing licked his lips and thought so.
The female cultivator in red is indeed from Tianchi Sword Sect.
At this moment, she did not join the other monks in stepping forward to greet the newly arrived people from the Tianchi Sword Sect. Even though among these people, there was a blood relative of a powerful figure in the sect, her expression did not waver at all, and she just held her tightly. Staring at Gu Qing, his eyes were full of cold murderous intent.
In fact, Gu Qing's seizure of the Life and Creation Pills did not make the female cultivator in red hold such a grudge. The real reason why the female cultivator in red was so intent on murdering Gu Qing was the palm that Gu Qing used when he snatched the pills!
'After two days, kill this son first, and then seize the Tianzhu.
The female cultivator in red raised her eyes to look at the purple star in the sky.
"Junior Sister Zhou, it seems that you have a grudge against the guy at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment?" Not far from the female cultivator in red, a petite female cultivator was hanging on a tree trunk. She also ignored the recent arrivals of the Tianchi Sword Sect. At this moment, he shook his body and spoke to the female cultivator in red.
"…There is a grudge."
The female cultivator in red glanced at the petite female cultivator and responded.
At this time.
A man with four swords on his back, nearly ten feet tall and as strong as an iron tower, strode from a distance with a group of sturdy female cultivators and Tianchi Sword Sect disciples who were facing the group of sturdy female cultivators.
"The arrival of the Purple Chen Star Power is not far away. The matter of seizing the Purple Light Pool is urgent. Junior Sister Zhou must also put the overall situation first and not let down Elder Zhou's painstaking efforts." The man's voice was as cold as iron, and it was resounding. He stepped out with just one step, and his body The shape was like a sharp sword cutting through the air, and it flashed onto the tree trunk. The tree trunk was so thick that neither of them could hug each other, and it sank slightly.
When the female cultivator in red heard this, her expression became a little more gloomy.
She narrowed her eyes and wanted to say something, but she glanced at the man who looked like an iron tower and the four swords behind his back, and stopped talking.
"Hey! Junior brother Lu, you are such a rough guy. You broke the trunk of the tree and broke your senior sister. What should I do?" The petite female cultivator suddenly sank as the trunk of the tree sank, and her figure that was still swaying slipped down, almost It hit the ground headfirst, but at the last moment the body was like duckweed.
Uh-huh!
The petite female cultivator returned to the tree trunk and stood still. Her big, watery eyes were wide open and her eyes were evil. She looked at the male cultivator who was as strong as an iron tower. She pouted her little mouth and hugged her arms.
Son, looking very angry.
Two days passed in a hurry.
The number of monks in the field has not increased for several hours.
At this moment, all the monks from the Zichen Secret Realm should have gathered here, and those who have not yet arrived will probably not be able to come.
Somewhere not far or near from the ten sky pillars.
The forest sea surged with the wind, and the rustling sound of branches and leaves colliding with each other drowned out everything, highlighting the eerie silence in the field. In the crown of an inconspicuous ancient tree, Gu Qing held a high-grade spiritual stone in his hand and closed his eyes to adjust his breathing.
Ever since the tough female cultivator and his group joined the Tianchi Sword Sect's cultivator team, the number of times the red-dressed female cultivator came over has obviously dropped sharply.
This made Gu Qing feel a little relieved.
It would be great if he could not fall in love with the female cultivator in red.
After all, he was not alone at the moment.
Entrusted by the unpredictable middle-aged man in blue shirt, he must try his best to help Lin Yan and achieve his goal. As for whether he wants to find a seat in the Purple Light Pool at the top of a certain sky pillar...
'Purple light pool, purple air pool...
'According to what that guy said, the place where Zichen Xingjun arranged to plant the devil and leave his mark is the Purple Qi Pond! And the purple energy pool that guy was talking about should be this purple light pool!
'In this case……
'I am mentally ill, so I entered the Purple Light Pool to be baptized!
The corners of Gu Qing's mouth pursed slightly.
A funny smile flashed in his eyes.
Observe the situation in the field, and sweep away the enthusiasm of the cultivators for the Purple Light Pool, which is either displayed on their faces or hidden in their eyes. Watch them gearing up, recharging their energy, or making all kinds of calculations, draining their efforts, just to fight for entry. The purple light pool at the top of the Tianzhu is an opportunity for the body to be filled with the power of the Zichen star.
A strong sense of absurdity occupied Gu Qing's heart with a arrogant attitude. At this moment, he was at a rare loss.
For the time being, let’s not think about whether what Xu Wuji said about Zichen Xingjun is true or not, and don’t think about whether the Purple Qi Pool is the Purple Light Pool.
Gu Qing had only one question in his mind.
For those powerful men whose cultivation reaches the heavens, what is the difference between monks and ordinary people? What is the difference between it and livestock that are kept in captivity and can be killed at will?
Was what he saw along the way really an illusion?
If there really is a great power controlling all development, the further you advance and the higher your cultivation level, the closer you will be to the cultivation qualifications to become a great power...
So how should he do it?
If the immortal road is just a lie, and the sky is also drawn by a certain great power, and every word, every action, and every move is the wish of that great power and is felt by that great power, then is it true that all the progress and progress are Flowers in the mirror and moon in the water, rootless duckweeds, have no meaning?
Whether one's body is born or dies, whether it is strong or weak, it is only a matter of a thought from that great power! In this case, how should he do it?
Panic spread in his heart, and Gu Qing suppressed it.
He took a deep breath, knowing that it would do no good to dwell on this.
Where to come from, he can't decide, and where to go, he only has a slight right to choose. In this case, there is no other way but to grasp this glimmer of hope and go on without looking back.
Even if everything is false, live up to this intention.
Even though the world is all illusion, this heart is bright!
All of a sudden.
Gu Qing's original heart was clear, and all the worries disappeared like mist. The aura around his body suddenly changed, becoming pure and solid, without any sense of confusion anymore, and his cultivation was completely stable at the fifth level of foundation building.
Gu Qing's external changes were not drastic, even like spring rain moistening the fields, almost silently, but it still attracted the attention of Lin Yan not far away.
'Um? This person seems to have made a breakthrough... He can still practice with peace of mind in such a place surrounded by powerful enemies! Lin Yan was filled with doubts and he couldn't help but be more fond of Gu Qing.
Gu Qing didn't notice Lin Yan's reaction.
He is looking inwards at his body and mind
The god landed on the bloody lotus platform in the Dantian Qi sea, but saw five golden lotus seeds shining brightly above the bloody lotus platform. It was blood light at first, and gradually turned into golden light.
Such golden light shines all over the body, and the harmonious warmth circulates throughout Gu Qing's body. The blood lotus under the five golden lotus seeds slowly starts to rotate, and it rotates faster and faster, like a high-speed rotating bloody millstone, causing Gu Qing's whole body to feel numb. The power gathers crazily, twisting and crushing it!
Gu Qing frowned, suppressing the violent fluctuations of spiritual power in his body, and after the high-grade spiritual stone in his hand turned into fly ash, he took out another top-grade spiritual stone.
Just when Lin Yan and other monks who were closest to Gu Qing noticed Gu Qing's gradually fluctuating aura, purple starlight suddenly appeared in the sky, falling down like a waterfall, covering all directions!
"Purple Chen star power has arrived!"
"Everyone, above the Tianzhu, the pool of purple light has begun to gather!"
"..."
Noisy sounds, accompanied by purple stars falling from the sky, sounded in the field. The next moment, the field became extremely chaotic!
One after another, the escaping lights rose into the sky and flew towards the ten sky pillars. The intensive sounds of piercing the sky, shouts, and curses were mixed together, and were eventually drowned out by the earth-shattering explosions.
With this explosion, a melee broke out!
In an instant, countless monks took action against each other and fought together. Except for the monks from the five sects who controlled the Zichen Secret Realm, most of the three-person team formed could deal with the outside world in unison and fight towards the top of the Tianzhu. , the three-person team formed by other monks almost completely fell apart. There were many monks in the same team attacking each other!
As soon as the melee started, Gu Qing, who was still practicing on the side, was extremely eye-catching. But fortunately, all the cultivators were busy running towards the ten pillars to seize the seat of the Purple Light Pool. Gu Qing was ten miles away. The sky pillar was not close, so after a few breaths passed, no one bothered Gu Qing.
But how majestic was the commotion caused by the melee among hundreds of foundation-building monks?
After a few breaths, the forest sea rolled back, the earth was shattered, and even the surrounding light was distorted by various fighting skills. The aftermath of the fighting skills was entangled with each other, sweeping in all directions, and immediately swept away the ancient tree where Gu Qing was sitting cross-legged. The huge lump of earth beneath it was blown away!
Gu Qing's figure was also irresistibly exposed to the eyes of several repulsed monks. At that moment, closest to Gu Qing, there was a pale and beautiful female cultivator of the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. Her eyes were filled with joy, and she raised her two The spiritual weapon was smashed down on Gu Qing's head!
'This fifth-level foundation-building monk's aura is suddenly strong and weak. It's obvious that he has reached a critical moment in his cultivation. If he can be killed...
The beautiful female cultivator of the fourth level of foundation building quietly increased her spiritual power infusion. The two spiritual weapons she raised, a seal and a flag, turned into a fire light and a black light, falling towards Gu Qing. The fire light circulated rapidly, and in an instant Then it wrapped around Gu Qing, igniting blazing flames and burning towards the inside.
And that black light turned into a long-handled spear, and it immediately stabbed Gu Qing between the eyebrows, as if it was going to explode Gu Qing's head!
Seeing this female cultivator's attack so fast and ruthless, the other cultivators around her were all stunned and sighing, knowing that they missed a free benefit - they also didn't know that this black robe had the fifth level of foundation building. Monk, why are you so unlucky? At the critical moment of your cultivation, you actually encountered the power of the Zichen star falling from the sky! It's also because he was so careless that he dared to enter into such a deep practice near the ten heavenly pillars.
At the moment when the whole body was surrounded by flames and the black gun fell between his eyebrows, Gu Qing's eyes turned into pure gold and suddenly opened!
Bang!
Gu Qing raised a slender hand at an incredible speed and grasped the tip of the big black gun. He stopped the big black gun between his eyebrows. At the same time, blood exploded all over his body. Flash, like burning blood flames, cutting off the raging fire.
"You are bringing your own death."
Gu Qing did not speak, but spoke with his spiritual consciousness.
His eyes were indifferent, and he looked at the beautiful female cultivator quietly. He held it up with his other hand. In the sea of Qi in Dantian, the blood-colored lotus platform that was still rotating at high speed suddenly shook and emitted an extremely condensed blood light. It flowed into his palm, and he pressed it towards the beautiful female cultivator.
Buzz!
The blood-colored light beam burst out from Gu Qing's hand, and in an instant, it enveloped the beautiful female cultivator who was about to fly away when she saw that the situation was not good.
The expression of the beautiful female cultivator changed drastically, and then the jade pendant on her waist shone brightly, forming a light gray barrier around her body. However, before the beautiful female cultivator could relax, the bloody beam of light was blocked for a moment, and then penetrated the barrier. The barrier fell on the figure of the gorgeous female cultivator!
puff!
The gorgeous female nun was evaporated on the spot!
Its beautiful body and gorgeous face are all gone!
The blood-colored light beam passed through the air, and at the edge it swept past a middle-grade spiritual weapon flying sword offered by a monk. The middle-grade spiritual weapon flying sword immediately flew out and was scrapped on the ground! And the blood-colored light pillar continued to move, penetrating directly into the ground in the distance, corroding a deep and huge pit!
Suddenly, the area fell into deathly silence.
