A ball of strong wind flew across the sky.
The white clouds torn apart by the strong wind looked like flying catkins falling all over the sky.
A huge mountain gate is shrouded in the misty mist in front. Looking far into the distance, you can faintly see the towering mountain peaks and ancient palaces behind this huge mountain gate.
Just next to the towering mountain peaks and a group of ancient palaces, you can see the gurgling water and the flying waterfalls. Looking at the green mountains, the leisurely lake shore, the gold and silver mountains are just a casual phenomenon. The swamp of fire seems to be melted at one end...
The strong wind fell on this mountain gate and spread out, revealing two figures. Among them, Gu Qing, who was wearing black clothes and short hair, looked ahead solemnly.
A huge broken hole seemed to have penetrated an invisible barrier, hanging extremely conspicuously above the huge mountain gate.
There is a slightly thin spiritual energy in this cavity, and the mixed power of the five elements is continuously escaping. It can be seen that there is a solid formation glow all around, which is shining continuously, in this huge broken cavity All around, new invisible barriers were quickly woven.
'Did some monks of the Five Elements Sect break through the mountain gate? Not even a single monk could be seen inside.
Gu Qing did not rush online.
He looked around, and soon his eyes lit up.
"Leaning to the northwest and facing the southeast, standing on the Immortal Mountain with the five qi turning... This is the mountain gate of the Five Elements Sect." Gu Qing recalled the few words on the sea map that introduced the Five Elements Sect on the Great Tan Island.
"Something seems to have happened to the Five Elements Sect. Even the mountain gate has been broken. It seems that my luck is not very good." Gu Qing looked at the mountain gate in front of him with his hands behind his hands, and spoke to the dark boy beside him, but quietly noticed from the corner of his eye. To one side, a group of monks were approaching quickly.
The swarthy boy pursed his lips and looked up at the huge hole above the Five Elements Sect's mountain gate, feeling uncontrollably disappointed in his heart.
The island he was on often had monks who were slow to advance in cultivation and who gave up on themselves, arrogant and arrogant. Therefore, when he received enlightenment from the monks from the Five Elements Sect who were out and about, he fantasized about bringing down those who looked down on him and his parents in the past. The hateful people trampled under his feet, and they were as majestic as those monks who were domineering and blessing in the past.
But he had never thought that when he came to the gate of the Five Elements Sect, which he had fantasized about thousands of times, he would see such a scene - he had never thought that the gate of the Five Elements Sect would be so majestic, but now it looked so... The majestic mountain gate has been broken. For such a sect, even if he really enters the gate, can he feel proud and domineering like the monks he saw in his hometown in the past?
The dark boy closed his eyes.
He thought about the Immortal Master in Hengxing Township who changed his attitude towards him and his parents drastically after he was enlightened by the traveling monks of Five Elements Sect, and thought about the flattery of that Immortal Master.
'As long as the Five Elements Sect is immortal, there should be no problem in being domineering and prosperous in the future. It is much better than being a scholar or something. The dark boy's heart was shocked and he finally gave up his messy thoughts.
Just when the dark-skinned boy was feeling a little entangled in his heart.
A group of monks came quickly to the side.
There are fourteen monks in this group, led by two people at the sixth level of foundation building. Among the other twelve people, four monks are in the early stage of foundation building. The remaining eight people follow the four early stage monks in pairs. The cultivation levels of these eight people are all in the late stages of Qi refining, ranging from the ninth level to the twelfth level of Qi refining, and there are no monks who have reached the Great Perfection realm of Qi refining.
After the group of monks noticed Gu Qing and the dark-skinned young man, they all frowned. On the occasion of the powerful enemy's attack, a dark-skinned young man with no cultivation at all, and a skinny monk in black robe with his head exposed, came to the mountain. I don’t know what the reason is in front of the door.
This group of monks paid no heed to Gu Qing's thoughts and flew into the hollow above the Five Elements Sect's mountain gate, disappearing in a flash.
Gu Qing looked at the group of monks who had disappeared. His eyes changed slightly. He lightly crushed his feet and kicked up a stone. The stone flew through the air and hit the hole, but it was as if it had been submerged in water. , disappeared without a trace after passing through the hole.
'Array? Could it be that the monks of the Five Elements Sect have all entered the formation to protect the sect and deal with the invading powerful enemies? Gu Qing was guessing in his mind, he looked away and glanced at the dark boy on one side.
"My little friend, just wait nearby. I'll say goodbye. We'll see you again if we have the chance." As he said that, Gu Qing stepped on his feet, cracking the ground into pieces with a rumble, and then jumped up and disappeared into the sky. The ground shook and the dark boy staggered before him.
The swarthy boy managed to stabilize his figure.
"Senior..." He quickly looked up and tried to shout, but there was no trace of Gu Qing.
He was the only one left in the surrounding area, and he felt a sense of desolation. Facing the majestic mountain gate in front of him and the cold wind blowing inside, he shrunk and looked around. After turning around a few times, he hid in a hidden bush.
It is dozens of miles away from the Five Elements Sect Mountain Gate.
At the top of a mountain, gravel was everywhere, and the mountain wind was howling.
Several monks in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining were standing next to each other, looking ahead with astonishment. The black-clothed short-haired monk suddenly fell from the sky and broke half of the cliff. The sound of the cliff collapsing rumbled into his ears. It was as loud as thunder, adding a heavy feeling.
"How long have you guys been waiting here? Do you know what happened to the Five Elements Sect?" The black-clothed and short-haired monk, Gu Qing, glanced at these monks who were in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining. It turned into a light golden color, and the eyes were like substance.
Several monks in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining were glanced at by this intimidating gaze. They were all frightened and horrified. They knew that they were definitely not Qi Refining monks in front of them. They were probably the old monsters in the Foundation Establishment realm. Although they did not know why they were disguised as evil spirits. He has a level of cultivation in Qi refining, but he must not be provoked!
The few of them looked at each other, and the young-looking male cultivator, who had reached the eleventh level of Qi Refining, looked solemn and responded in a respectful tone:
"Senior, we and the Six Friends of Longshan have been watching here for more than a moment. A moment ago, the sky suddenly changed, and a huge palm appeared. The palm was white and slender. If you look at it from a distance, its shape is extremely beautiful... Ahem, this The palm print was placed on the top of the Five Elements Sect's mountain gate, and the Five Elements Sect's sect-protecting formation was broken with one palm. We don't know what happened after that, but I guess it was the Five Elements Sect's ancestor who took action."
"After all, the owner of that palm, who can smash the Five Elements Sect's Yin-Yang Five Elements Formation with one palm, is probably a powerful person in the realm of elixir formation... In addition, the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect has already completed the fourth level of elixir formation. Based on my guess, the owner of that palm who dares to come looking for trouble must be a powerful person with three or four levels of alchemy formation, or even a higher level."
As the male cultivator spoke, he quietly observed Gu Qing's face. Seeing that Gu Qing's face was calm, he felt very anxious.
"I see, thank you very much." Gu Qing took out a few middle-grade spiritual stones and threw them to the male cultivator, "Where is the nearest large-scale cultivation workshop market? Can any of you help me take a trip there?"
In this troubled time of Dayan Island, it is better not to stay too long.
Gu Qing has decided to sell the last items and rush back to Qingshu Island to join the main body. Even if it costs more and uses a few second-grade flying talismans, he will not hesitate.
"Senior, this matter must be left to me. I have been living in the north and south of Datan Island for thirty or forty years. I have rich experience and will definitely satisfy my senior!" The male cultivator at the eleventh level of Qi Refining quickly put away a few middle-grade spiritual stones. , without waiting for the other five people to speak, he spoke quickly.
The other five members of the Six Friends of Longshan all looked over with a bit of resentment, staring at the back of this eleventh-level Qi Refining male cultivator.
"Okay, then let this fellow Taoist take someone for a walk."
Gu Qing nodded in agreement.
Qingshu Island.
At the southeastern edge.
The deep darkness that enveloped the entire island, even in the daytime, was like a tide that submerged everything on the island. However, this darkness stopped abruptly on the southeastern edge of the island, revealing two adjacent steep cliffs. and a forest of dead red ancient trees between two cliffs.
The sea of withered red leaves swelled under the smelly sea breeze, and the sound of waves rolled into the sound of waves, beating into one.
Film, regardless of you and me.
In the center of this forest of dead red ancient trees is a small hill.
This mountain bag was transformed by the earth element formation arranged by Gu Qing. At this time, in the mountain bag, that is, under the formation, in the cave, in the quiet training room, Gu Qing's body quietly opened his eyes.
"A battle between the alchemy monks?"
"Could that woman with white hair and eyebrows be a pill-forming monk? Did she see the specialness of the ancient demon's clone..." The divine light in her eyes illuminated the dark stone chamber, until the divine light inside dimmed. Going down, Gu Qing muttered to himself, frowning slightly.
Gu Qing's true body, even though it is thousands of miles away from the sea, can easily understand what the ancient demon's clone is thinking, seeing, and experiencing. However, the ancient demon's clone cannot know what Gu Qing's original body is thinking and seeing. Two Although they are essentially one, their priorities are always clear and unobstructed.
After half a year of practice, Gu Qing's cultivation level has successfully broken through to the sixth level of foundation building thanks to the power of the Lotus Heart Jade Dew Pill and the Indigo Body Casting Pill.
Of course, there is a reason why he has almost ignored foreign affairs and devoted himself to cultivation in the past six months. The bigger reason is that the indigo body-building pill is very powerful. The first few pills he took were extremely powerful. He continued to take the fifth pill. The reason for the decline in talent is that the priceless Indigo Body Building Pill and the Lotus Heart Jade Dew Pill are a perfect match. The two medicines complement each other. The body, soul, and spiritual power are all cultivated together, so the cultivation level will naturally advance very quickly.
"The cultivation level has reached the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. The perfection of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment is not far away. With the current speed of cultivation, if everything goes well, after taking the Indigo Body Casting Pill and the Lotus Heart Jade Dew Pill, we should be able to reach the level of Establishment." The sixth level of foundation is completed, and then we seek opportunities to break through to the later stages of foundation building.”
Gu Qing stood up, and there were several small explosions all around him.
It was the sound caused by the displaced joints when standing up and returning to their positions after sitting for a long time. A month ago, after Gu Qing broke through to the sixth level of foundation building, the explosive sound he made when he stood up was terrifying. Almost everyone around him The bones and joints are grinding together, every big muscle is twitching, every acupoint is vibrating, and the sound is almost like the roar of a tiger and the roar of a dragon.
Gu Qing felt the spiritual energy flowing around his body.
At this time, his spiritual power was 40 to 50% more pure than when he was at the fifth level of foundation building. The total amount of spiritual power in his body had doubled compared to that time. Whether it was the control of the power of heaven and earth, His ability to sense the spiritual energy of the surrounding world has been greatly enhanced.
In addition, the number of acupuncture points opened throughout his body has reached more than 230, and his physical strength has also increased dramatically. Even if he does not defend himself, it is difficult for ordinary Qi Refining monks to break through his defense.
After half a year of training, his strength has greatly increased.
As the Qi sea in his Dantian expanded to the top of the huge five-color lotus platform of 123 feet, the sixth golden lotus seed condensed, and the Great Five Elements Condensation Magic moved a little faster.
With this golden lotus seed in his body, no matter he is walking, standing, sitting or lying down, the five elements are in his body, operating over and over again.
In the past half a year, because he was completely immersed in cultivation, the benefits of the continuous operation of the technique were not obvious.
But as he left the cultivation state, the benefits became apparent - even though he had already stood up, the spiritual energy around him was still pouring into his body, including the unrefined spiritual liquid and remaining pills in his body. The power of the medicine is also melted away by the Great Five Elements Condensing Magic, which is always in operation.
Gu Qing walked out of the training quiet room and came to the cave overgrown with weeds. In this cave, except for the monk's quiet room with the spiritual spring, there was almost no spiritual power left in other places.
This is very different from the cave that Gu Qing saw half a year ago, which was full of spiritual energy. With the current level of spiritual energy, the spiritual fields around the cave cannot even plant spiritual plants that require greater spiritual energy, but can only plant some spiritual energy. Low-grade spiritual plants with little demand.
"No wonder no one rents this cave. Once the two spirit gathering formations change their formation, this cave will basically be useless."
Gu Qing shook his head and sighed.
This cave had cost him 45,000 middle-grade spiritual stones!
Gu Qing wandered around the overgrown Lingtian path for a few times, then returned to the cave again and came to the alchemy furnace: "There is a clone of the ancient demon."
With the 15,000 to 6,000 high-grade spiritual stones that I brought back, can I try to make elixirs on my own... It would be wonderful if I could learn this alchemy technique.
Gu Qing felt a little itchy in his heart.
He tried to use his spiritual consciousness to control the eternal burning spiritual fire in the alchemy furnace - this spiritual fire originated from the spiritual vein branch on Qingshu Island and would almost never go out. He bought this cave and never burned it. Not using this spiritual fire is really a waste. Even if he can't learn to make alchemy, he still has to hire an alchemist to make elixirs with the alchemy furnace and spiritual fire, or rent out the alchemy furnace and spiritual fire.
'After the spiritual consciousness comes into contact with the spiritual fire, the heat will not be felt at first, but as time goes by, a burning sensation will appear...and this burning sensation increases rapidly, and soon becomes unbearable, making it difficult to maintain the spiritual consciousness. In the state of a long stream of water... I heard that if you want to make elixirs, you must first let your spiritual consciousness reach this state.
Gu Qing gave it a try and regained his consciousness.
He rubbed his brows, feeling the consumption of his soul power.
'The consumption of the power of the soul after controlling it for a quarter of an hour is negligible... Maybe I also have some talent for alchemy? Gu Qing touched his chin and turned to look to one side. His eyes changed slightly. He seemed to see a beautiful female cultivator in a red dress through the stone wall of the cave.
"This woman... came a little slow..."
Xiao Die, wearing a red skirt, stood on the hill.
At this moment, Xiao Die's expression was a little shocked.
According to what Gu Qing's ancient demon clone said, she traveled tens of thousands of miles and came to the southeast side of Qingshu Island, looking for the person who could lift the restriction on her soul. She had just arrived here, and with her Qi Refining Dzogchen state, she With the power of her spiritual consciousness, she noticed that the hill below was probably an illusion, but she was unable to see through it at all.
Moreover, the grass and trees growing on this hill seem to be real. Unless you pick them up and hold them farther away, they will even show the characteristics of real grass and trees!
'The owner of this place is most likely to have foundation-building skills.
'And it is definitely an unusual early stage of foundation building...
'To be able to arrange such a wonderful formation here, could it be that he is an formation master in the middle stage of foundation building? In this case, what that person said, that the owner of this place can lift the restriction on my soul, should be true.
'But, what can I give to the owner of this place?
Xiao Die frowned slightly, thinking silently.
"I heard the south wind coming, it turned out to be a beautiful woman." At this time, a calm voice sounded from all around, and Xiao Die's eyes flashed.
"Greetings, senior."
Xiao Die immediately bowed and clasped his fists, speaking respectfully.
"Gu is aware of your purpose. Gu will help you remove the soul restriction." It seemed like a handful of black ink suddenly bloomed in front of Fei Qing's body, and then collapsed towards the inside, suddenly condensing out a black ink. Gu Qing, who was wearing a robe, had a slight smile on his face and looked at Xiao Die calmly. ap.
Xiao Die's eyes were lowered.
After half a year of self-cultivation, her lips that had returned to rosy turned slightly white and trembled. The wind ruffled her hair. She tried to be as calm as possible and said sincerely: "Xiao Die is deeply grateful for this great kindness." , I am willing to go through fire and water for my seniors in the future, and I will never have any complaints.”
"Oh, that's not necessary."
Gu Qing looked at Xiao Die deeply.
His body moved slightly, and he took half a step back. His eyes spread around, looking at the ancient forest in autumn, feeling the bleakness of the autumn wind, looking at the high sky, and said: "Fellow Taoist Xiao Die , please follow Gu into the cave for a brief explanation, so that Gu can lift the restriction on the soul of Fellow Daoist Xiao."
"Excuse me, senior."
Xiao Die's bright and gorgeous cheeks lifted up and she smiled sweetly.
"Please!" Gu Qing nodded, uttered one word, and then pointed his sword towards the earth and rocks below.
Immediately, the hill below began to vibrate.
A winding crack appeared on it, and then the glow of the earthy yellow formation flickered in all directions. The winding crack became bigger and bigger, not much more.
At that moment, a crack several feet long that opened horizontally on the hill appeared in front of Xiao Die.
Xiao Die did not hesitate and stepped into the gap.
Gu Qing glanced at the beautiful figure in the red dress falling downwards. His originally calm eyes were slightly disturbed, but soon returned to calm.
His body swayed, and then he returned to his cave. The horizontally opened door on the hill quietly closed, the glow of the formation disappeared, and the cold mountain wind still blew.
